Has anyone joined then the DAR/SAR on the Patriotic service of William Wooten, Sr., of Pitt Co., N.C., who wed Nasncy Forbes? I have an SAR supplimental on Lt. Arthur Forbes, Sr.; hbis wife's father. I saw his vote on the U.S. Constitution in the Dobbs County collection, in N.C. State Archives, Raleigh. I've got his genes alright; he voted against it. Why I don't know; perhaps like me, he saw it as a too radical document? William Wooten, Sr's son, Shadrack 'Shade" Wooten wed Mary Elizabeth 'Eliza' Murphey (Murphy), daughter of Wm. Spencer Murphey* (witness on the will of neighbor Blount (John Gray?)), brother of Wm. Blount Murphey, and Wilhelmenia "Billie" Murphey. Wm. Spencer Murphey wed Sussannah Roach, the daughter of Capt. David Roach (Sr.?), Patriot. William Spencer Murphey's father was Capt. William Murphey who shared a Dobbs Co. militia company with his brother Capt. (I forgot which brother)(the company roster preample is so patriotic, so sincere; it moved me over two! hundred years later), and was the sibling of John Murphey, Jr., Jethro Murphey, Wilhelmenia "Billie" Murphey, and the brother who's name I forgot. Their father, Capt. John Murphey, Sr., killed in the chariot accident, should qualify as a DAR/SAR Patriot, as at the Constitutional convention, New Bern, he was appointed to the office of Doorkeeper when the intended appointee did not show up. The correction of any mistatements will be appreciated. Written from a poor memory. Need to see how Wm. Spencer spelt his last name on the Blount will, reproduced in the John Gray Blount Papers, but the signature is not indexed.
