Here are a few notes on DUKE & GREEN from Granville, NC. Many of this county's people migrated from VA>NC>SC. Audrey Source: Granville Co, NC Genealogies and History by Owen "Daniel WELDON. Surveyor. Cert of survey of one care of land belonging to Sam'l DUKE, of *Reedy Creek, for a mill site for Wm. PERSON, Jr. Chain bearers: Sam'l DUKE, Rich'd MADDRY. Date of Survey, July 27, 1761. Appraisers: Will JOHNSON, Wm. DUKE, Rich'd MADRY, Peter GREEN. Valued at LO. 8s. proc. p. 44. (Second of the kind of record. ROUNDTREE place the first.)" "*Green to daut. Mary DUKE, gift. P. 155. (This line is marked through). Notes: *1. I don't know what sentence in parenthesis means. *2. There was a Green DUKE; perhaps this is he even though they don't give a surname for him here. The fact there is a Green DUKE shows a possible connection between the two families. Crime, Morals, etc. "June 2, 1747.
