John Freeman, d. 1800 Wake Co., NC, supposedly came from VA, per his g-grandson of SC. All clues I get from my records indicate kinship with the old Surry Co., VA Freemans & with William Freeman, m. Elizabeth Bridges, both from Surry Co., VA, but who wound up in Franklin Co., NC next door to Wake. Also, perhaps kin to an Edward Freeman who was in Franklin Co. There was an Edward in Surry Co. & one in Brunswick Co., Va. One Edward witnessed a deed with John in 1785 in Wake Co. and some of his children were in Wake Co. John Freeman m. Martha Linn, d/o James Linn who died in Wake Co. about 1797. Previous residence of her family is unknown. A male Freeman cousin is taking part in the Freeman DNA project, with the first 12 markers producing a perfect match and a possible 3 more, but the last 13 markers go haywire, Thanks for any help out there.
