Came to Mecklenburg from: County, State and Year	York Co. VA early 1780s
Moved from Mecklenburg to: County, State and Year, or where he d	Maury (Now Hickman) Co, TN
Comments:	William Howard Dedman, son of Samuel Dedman, moved his growing family from Mecklenburg Co. (see section 6 of the clickable 1870 map) to the Leatherwood Creek area of then Maury County, TN, sometime between 1822 and 1846 (died). A number of his brothers and sisters stayed in Mecklenburg Co. This part of Maury Co. (just west of Williamsport, TN.), was later ceded to Hickman Co. Most of the family remained there, but two sons, James Monroe Dedman and Marcus Lafayette Dedman, moved to Alabama where they both served in the Confederate Army. There are still Dedmans living in the Bon Aqua and Little Lot areas of Hickman County, TN. William Howard Dedman's will was probated in the Maury County Court and is on record either in the County Court or the Maury County Archives. A fire in the Hickman County Courthouse in the 1850s destroyed many vital records there.

Came to Mecklenburg from: County, State and Year	probably Dinwiddie Co.
Moved from Mecklenburg to: County, State and Year, or where he d	d. Elbert Co., GA after 1835
Comments:	Edward Clark was born December 27, 1756, probably Dinwiddie Co, VA. He was living in Mecklenburg Co., VA when he enlisted for RS; he was in a battle at Norfolk, Virginia, where wounded in defending the fort, and in several skirmishes; was discharged at Williamsburg, Virginia, after a service of twelve months. He was allowed pension on his application executed, September 12, 1822, while a resident of Elbert County, Georgia, having lived there about thirty years. In 1822, the soldier's wife was sixty-one years of age, and a daughter was aged nineteen years; their names are not given. The papers in this claim contain no further data relative to the family of the soldier, Edward Clark. Pension certificate No. 18877, issued January 30, 1823. Patrick Butler and James Butler [both in Elbert Co., GA]declare they were acquainted with Edward Clark while in the company of Capt. Robert Ballard and regiment of infantry of Col. Stephens. He served twelve months in 1777 and 1778. Two Edward Clark's appears on an undated militia roster for Capt. White's Company, Elbert Co., GA. On the same roster are Williamson Clark, Gillard [Gilbert?] Clark, and Christopher Clark. The list is probably after 1805. The 1782 and 1784 personal property tax lists for Mecklenburg Co., VA also lists Edward Clark Sr., Edward Clark, Jr. and Gillard [Gilbert?] Clark.). I don't know if these are the same men.

Name of Family Head & Wife	Solomom Russell and Araminta Russell
Came to Mecklenburg from: County, State and Year	slaves on the Russell and Hendrick Plantations
Comments:	From the autobiography of African-American; James Solomon Russell "An Adventure in Faith, the fouding of the St Paul Normal and Industrial School in Lawrencevile, VA. James Solomon Russell was the first Black Archdeacon of the Episcopal Church. Chapter I Born into Slavery Four years before the beginning of the war which was to change me from chattel to man, I was born in a little white-washed log cabin on the Hendrick Estate, near Palmer Springs and the Roanoke River, amid the green hills of Mecklenburg County, Virginia. On December 20, 1857, I unceremoniously became one more slave on the plantation of Mr. Hendrick. Of my ancestry I have known little and a bust life has not allowed me time fro genealogy tracing, but the ever present memory of my mother, father and grandmother has been sufficient to fill whatever place ancestral worship might have taken place in my life. In Mecklenburg County however, the story has been handed down that my mother’s grandmother was sold in Palmer Springs shortly after she was brought from Africa. She had a daughter Seleah, and both of them worked in the “Big Houseö. Seleah had four daughters and two sons, and following the custom on most plantations, all the daughters were married under the supervision of their master. This matter of producing slaves was as important as breeding animals! One of these, Araminta became my mother. My paternal parent, Solomon Russell, was slave on the Russell plantation in Warren County, North Carolina. My first seven or eight years, therefore, were spent without my knowing the companionship of a father or my experiencing the richness of a household that where husband and wife planned, worked, and prayed together. All my problems were my mothers until after the Civil war, when my parents joined each other and began to make of hut or cabin a home. Palmer Springs in years past was a flourishing watering place, and attracted many visitors to the crystal mineral springs after which it was named. Besides these, the cultivation of cotton and bright tobacco were the principal occupations and these commodities, with the slaves, formed a triumvirate by which wealth was measured. Today, the natural beauty of the country is just as picturesque, but other popular resorts together with improved modes of travel, have robed it of it’s value as a tourist rendezvous; the traffic in slaves is now a thing of the past, and cotton is no longer king. In the same way and typical of changing times, a modern steel bridge now spans the Roanoke River and connect Virginia wit North Carolina, where in the days gone by we used to cross the stream in “flatsö. Round about the country many of the descendents of the slaves, and grandchildren and great grandchildren of my former master still make their homes: one of the descendents of Mr. Hendrick also occupies my old master’s house. My mother was poor, very poor. This poverty stood out all the more because, following the emancipation, we were left to fight our own battles and to manage our own lives; we were cast upon the billowy deep to paddle our own canoe, to what destination we scarcely knew. One thing we soon found out; no more could we look to our master for shelter, sustenance, care, and direction; we had gained Freedom and with it the responsibilities-dire responsibilities, at first-of being our own masters. All through the Civil War, my mother and the other slaves remained on the plantation, but the news of the strife was always around us; three of our master’s sons were away with the Confederate forces, and concern for them also gripped the slaves. The older slaves knew the meaning of the conflict and although they remained loyal, they hoped for freedom and would whisper such tidings as they gleaned concerning the success of the Union soldiers. When the Yankees neared Mecklenburg, my master had all his slaves and valuables taken and hid in the depths of the woods, and there they remained for weeks at a time; the slaves living in barracks and on the most meager of diets. Mother lived in one of the log cabins near the “Big Houseö all through 1865, and at the close of the year my father built a small log cabin just across Smith’s Creek in North Carolina. Here we stayed until the close of 1867, when my parents and several other relatives decided to return to the Virginia side. There they built more cabins and settled down to two of the hardest years ever. Fishing, gunning, and trapping had to be engaged to augment the income that came in from the farm, but at best only a mere existence could be eked out. Although I was young, I , too had to help earn the daily bread, and so as a little barefoot farm boy, a “one gallusö boy in mother-made trousers, I milked the cow, sold eggs and the butter my mother made, hoed and followed the plough, and did a hundred and one other chores which kept me close to the soil and which were to influence me all the rest of my life. My mother often told me that she named me Solomon, not s much because it was my father’s name, but because she had hoped and prayed that somehow I would be as wise as the Solomon of the Bible about whom she had heard the white minister preach and the Negro lay-reader exhort. On every occasion she would seek advice about my schooling and ask people what they thought of me. One of the persons who made a great deal over me was Mr. Thomas Wade, overseer on the Hendrick Estate. He would take me riding behind him as he went about the farm, answering the countless questions with which I bombarded him and laying down one condition for my going: that I wear breeches, even though I was still at the age when little dresses or gowns were the order of the day. Mr. John E. P. Wright, who was the superintendent of the white Sunday school near Palmer Springs until he decided to help the small colored Sunday school to get on its feet, was also one of the persons who encouraged me. The colored school was begun n the Spring of 1870 with Mr. “Mack: Dugger as superintendent and my two cousins and myself as pupils.

Name of Family Head & Wife	Hezekiah Griffin and Mary
Came to Mecklenburg from: County, State and Year	Born in Mecklenburg County
Moved from Mecklenburg to: County, State and Year, or where he d	Henderson County, Kentucky in 1870
Comments:	HEZEKIAH GRIFFIN (1809-1888) was born in the southwestern area of Mecklenburg County, Virginia, in May, 1809 to Francis Griffin and Susannah Tranum Griffin. He and his twin brother, ZEPHANIAH GRIFFIN, were the youngest siblings of a large family. Hezekiah Griffin was married to Mary, whose last name we do not know. Speculation is that it was "Wiles", but we have no positive proof. Hezekiah Griffin was a member of the Grassy Creek Baptist Church in northern Granville County, North Carolina. Upon the sale of his land to a Mr. Overby, some 170 acres adjoining John J. Throckmorton and others in the "Shiney Rock" area of Mecklenburg, southwest of Clarksville and very near the North Carolinia line (and Granvile County), the Griffins move to Kentucky. Hezekiah Griffin's brother, Zephaniah, had moved there a number of years earlier. Hezekiah and Mary Griffin died in Henderson County, Kentucky, and are buried with many of their kin in the Griffin Family Cemetery, east of the City of Henderson. One of their children was my great grandmother, LOUISA GRIFFIN(1839-1912). She was married to my great grandfather, GEORGE D. NETHERY, August 21, 1860, in Granville County, N. C.

Name of Family Head & Wife	Thomas Nethery (wife unknown)
Came to Mecklenburg from: County, State and Year	Chester County, Pennsylvania ca. 1760
Moved from Mecklenburg to: County, State and Year, or where he d	Died in Mecklenburg County, 1798
Comments:	THOMAS NETHERY(1719-1798)is listed on the tax books of Chester County, Pennsylvania in the late 1750s, i.e. 1756 - 1759. He rented land, was a farmer, and had a family. The first public record that bears his name in Mecklenburg County, is a County Court Order in which he, his hands, and neighbors and hands, are instructed to do repair work on a public road that runs by Thomas Erskine's place and others. In Mecklenburg County Court Order Book 9, Page 214, Richard Witton is listed as the overseer, with Thomas Erskine, Thomas Netherly, and others as workers....along with their hands. In a subsequent 1769 deed, it appears that Thomas Nethery had claimed squatters' rights on some 50 acres of land, probably about 1760, that would be included in his 1769 purchase of land from the said Richard Witton. Nethery was married three times. We do not know the name of the wife who came with him to Mecklenburg County. We only know the name of the third wife, who was Mary Ann Baker.

Moved from Mecklenburg to: County, State and Year, or where he d	From Mecklenburg County, VA 1839 to Franklin County, VA 1840
Comments:	Claiborne B. JOHNSON and Nancy THOMAS were married Sept 1821 in Lunenburg County, VA. They are in personal property tax lists there for 1820-1822. In 1830-1838 (except for 1833) they are found in Mecklenburg County, VA personal property tax lists. In 1840-1854 (except for 1844) they are found in Franklin County, VA personal property tax lists. In 1860, Claiborne must be deceased and his wife is enumerated with her son, James M. JOHNSON, in Pettis County, MO. It appears that Claiborne did not own any land and must have been a sharecropper or farm laborer. He could have died in Franklin County, VA, enroute to MO, or in MO between 1854 and 1860.

Comments:	Data based upon Zachariah Hastings American Rev. War Pension file as well as VA/NC census and tax records. Zachariah's pension file states he was born 1751 in Amelia Co., VA. He was one of three sons named in the 1763 Amelia Co., VA will of John Hastings. Zachariah's pension file states he lived in Amelia Co. until he was about 17 when his family moved to Mecklenburg Co., VA where he lived until about 1780-1782. Zachariah then moved Warren Co., NC where he lived for eight/nine years. About 1797-98 he moved to Caswell Co., NC where he lived until his death in April-May, 1835. Zachariah's mother was unnamed in his father's will; however, the Amelia Co., VA will of Francis Tucker indicates that Amy Tucker Hastings probably was married to John Hastings. Above data also supported by tax and deed records in Amelia Co., VA, Mecklenburg Co., VA, Warren Co., NC and Caswell Co., NC

Comments:	Looking for information on VA roots of James Norment, supposedly born in Caroline County, VA 2/15/1766. Following is the obituary of his son, James Norment, Jr.: 1875, October 31, "At his residence in Vidalia, LA on Sunday morning, Oct. 31, 1785, James Normant, aged 73 years and 9 months. *He was born in Mecklenburg County, Va., where issues the first Declaration of Independence. His father was one of the descendants of the Scotch Covenanters, who settled in Virginia in the Seventeenth century. His religion was ever in accordance with the Presbyterian Church. It was his solace through life, from which he departed in the full assurance of acceptance by his savior. *In the early part of his life, he was an assistant of the Clerk of the Court, which familiarized him to the duties to which his fellow citizens had elected him as magistrate, Clerk of Police Jury, and Recorder in Concordia Parish. In 1828, he removed to Alexandria, Parish of Rapides where he conducted a very heavy mercantile business in the company with his brother Richard, but on the death of the latter he gave up merchandising and began planting cotton. In a few years he sold his plantation and removed to New Orleans, where he engaged in the wholesale grocery business and remained there until his sons had obtained a fair education in the public schools. He then purchased a tract of new land in Concordia, on the banks of Black River, where he remained until his sons became planters, when he removed to Vidalia, at which place, being elected recorder, he lived until his death. *In the family circle he was beloved as he loved, and a among his numerous acquaintances he sustained the character of an honorable and true citizen."
