| 70 | A Nathaniel Page and William Page took the oath of allegiance in 1778 in Goshen District in Granville Co., NC. Walter Clark, State Records of North Carolina, Vol. 11, p 168-179. It is not proven whether this Nathaniel Page is the same person, but I think it is likely. Nathaniel Page appears on the Caswell Co.tax lists in 1782 and appears every year until 1796. In 1791 he is listed as owning 200 acres of land. He is listed as owning 100 acres in 1792 - 1794. In 1795, he is listed without any land, but from deed records we know that he owned at least 100 acres. In 1796 he is listed as owning 100 acres and in 1797 he is listed as owning 120 acres. The deed records do not match up exactly with the tax records. This may be attributable to errors in the tax records. According to deed records, Nathaniel's first land purchase was on January 25, 1793. Natheniel Page and William Adkins, Sen., bought 100 acres on Moon's Creek adjacent Somers and Dixon from David Pendergrass. (Deed Book H, p. 117). Nathaniel Page and William Page eventually sold this piece of property to William Page, Jr. on Nov. 18, 1798 (Deed Book K., p. 346). Nathaniel also purchased 20 acres on waters of Moon Creek adjacent from Benjamin Ransom for 10 pounds (Deed Book K, p. 20). Nathaniel Page also sold this property to William Page, Jr. on Nov. 18, 1798. (Deed Book K., p. 347). Nathaniel Page does not appear in the 1800 census and I presume that he is deceased by this date. A Nathaniel Page appears in the North Carolina Revolutionary War Army Accounts. (Mars ID 13.30.43199). Nathaniel Page of Caroline County Nathaniel PAGE and Hannah ? first were found living in Amelia Co., VA from ca. 1757 (when Nath'l purchased 100 acres of land from Wm. Cumpton). (Amelia Co., VA Deed Bk. 6: 81. Nathaniel & wf. Hanna PAGE sold the above land (100 acres) to John Spurlock in 1760. (Amelia Co., VA Deed Bk. 7: 272. They then purchased some acreage on Platt's Creek in Amelia Co., VA from John and Mary Ford the same year. (Amelia Co., VA Deed Bk. 7: 274) Then, they sold the above land on Platt Creek to Richard Johnson in 1768 and sold it to Richard Craddock in 1770. (Amelia Co., VA Deed Bk. 9: 255 and Deed Bk. 11: 196) NOTE: In the first deed, the acreage was given as 396, but the grantor deed gave it as 296 acres. Then they moved to Charlotte Co., VA where, in 1770, Nathaniel purchased 400 acres of land from Richard & Elizabeth Craddock (prob. the same as the above man of the same name. (Charlotte Co., VA Deed Bk. 2: 429) Nathaniel and Hannah PAGE had four sons and one daughter that I know about:(not necessarily in this order) 1. Elizabeth PAGE md. John VAUGHN of Pr. Edward Co., VA 2. Richard PAGE md. Elizabeth JONES - Richard went to Union Co., SC 3. Nathaniel PAGE md. Rosanna ? (probably yours - went to Spartanburg Dist., SC. 4. William PAGE md. Nancy ? (probably COBB????) Nathaniel PAGE, Sr. (who md. Hannah) "may have"(?) died in Charlotte Co., VA sometime between 1783 (when he deeded a slave to his dau. Elizabeth Vaughn and land to his son Richard Page) and 1796 when "a" Nathaniel PAGE and wf. Rosamond and Richard PAGE & wf. Elizabeth sold land to George FOSTER. (Charlotte Co., VA Deed Bk. 4: 78, Deed Bk. 5: 37 and Deed Bk. 7: 178) Nathaniel PAGE & wf. Rosanna deeded 100 acres to John Foster in 1798 and then evidently moved away. (Charlotte Co., VA Deed Bk. 8: 155) However, the last year that I found Nathaniel PAGE in the Charlotte Co., VA Personal Property Tax Lists was 1798. He could have been the father or the son of this name????? This is the last year that I found any of Nathaniel's family in the Charlotte Co., VA Pers. Prop. Tax Lists. The Charlotte Co., VA Order Book of Nov 1787 gives the following item: "Sarah Mitchell, orphan of John Mitchell, chose Nathaniel Page as guardian and her brother, William Mitchell, chose John Watkins". (Charlotte Co., VA Ct. Order Bk. 9 (1792-1794) - (above from "Magazine of Virginia Genealogy" article titled "Eighteenth Century Charlotte Co.

M432_968, p. 171. He does not appear to be in our line. The 1862 death register of Pittsylvania Co. shows Thomas H. Dove died August 1, 1862 of typhoid fever in Danville. He was 37 years old, born in Pittsylvania Co., and if the transcription is correct his parents were William V. Dove and Mar. Dove. 1 Apr 1811 William Dove II and Mary P. Mustain, dau. of Avery Mustain, Sur. Avery Mustain 22 Jan 1824 William Dove II-Peggy Barrett, dau of John Barrett , Sur. John Barrett (?) If this William is the father of Thomas, his father may be the William Dove, Sr. who shows up in PIttsylvania Co. about 1783. He has a wife named Lucinda and he apparently moved there from Fairfax Co., VA. He served four tours of duty in the Rev. War in the militia, the marines and the navy. There is a pension application for this guy. They have those in the library here so I'll get that also.

| 88 | Albemarle/Pittsylvania Co. Virginia: John F. Dalton (ca. 1750-60 to 3 April 1833) and wife Mary Ann (Flannagan) Dalton (11 Nov 1753 to 1820-30) from Virginia, were charter members of old Second Creek Baptist Church (constituted 1 Oct 1814). Married about 1772 in Virginia, before the American Revolution, they lived their last years on earth a couple of miles northwest of Hartsville, purchasing land on Goose Creek in 1813. John F. Dalton (ca 1750-60 to 3 April 1833) was the son, it seems, of Robert Dalton and wife Mary (Key) Dalton, earlier of Albemarle Co., VA, and later of Pittsylvania Co., VA. Mary was the daughter of John Key and wife Martha (Tandy) Key. Mary Ann (Flannagan) Dalton was the daughter of James Flannagan, Jr., son of James Flannagan, Sr. The Daltons were from Virginia and from Ireland, according to Myrtle (Dalton) Story (1900-1983). They were slave owners and there are many Black Daltons in the Hartsville area today in addition to the White Daltons. John F. Dalton's estate papers lists many slaves by name and age. In John Dalton's will (dated 4 Jan 1833) he mentioned "Negro man Issac" as having been recently lent to his son, John, he bequested "to my grandson Tyre son of John one negro boy named Moses," he "bequesth to (daughter) Matilda Cathey one negro man named Cylus to be counted to her as five hundred dollars," and he gave son Shelton "one hundred and sixty dollars for the hire of negro man 4 years." ______________ 1767 - Pittsylvania Co tithables list has a Robert, John, and Robert Jr. listed at one location--to be determined who the elder Robt is. (89/9) 1769 - 24 Aug: "a" Robt Dalton Jr bought 45 acr both sides Frying Pan Cr in Pitts Co from John Dalton of Pitts Co. Deed was signed by David Dalton, James Mitchell, James Bobbitt. There is not a Robert-John-David combination as brothers in a family. Is Robt Jr (RIN 998), b. abt 1750, too young for this legal transaction? Is Robert (RIN 924) in Pitts Co at this time and consequently a candidate to be this person? (55/7) More input into this 45 acres deed: The land was purchased in Halifax Co on 8 Nov 1766 from Arter Barden, 45 acres for ú20, land on both sides Pigg River beg. at Wm Atkinson's line, going along Lewis Potter's line. Witnesses to the deed were Wm Atkinson, Robert Dolton, and James Dolton (345/12) James Dolton on 15 Sept 1766 sold the 50 ac land he had on north side/Pigg River to Richard Shockley and bought from Shockley 50 acres on south side of Pigg River, land that went down Atkinson's line also (345/11) Same day in Sept same yr, James sold 30 of those 50 acres to Robert Dolton, land abstract mentioned Atkinson's line and Bobbitt's line. (345/11) 1770 - 11 Feb John Dalton, Jr of Pittsylvania Co sold 100 acres in Albemarle Co for 3 pounds 15 shillings to Thomas Terry. The land was the other half (moiety) of that John sold to Thomas Carr.(45/4-5) 1770 - 2 or 11 Feb listed as John Dalton Jr, Pittsylvania Co., sold 100 acres land in Albemarle (one moiety of 200 acres given to Mary Key Dalton, mother of John Dalton Jr, wife of Robert Dalton, daughter of John Key) to Tho: Carr of Albemarle. Land on head branches of Keys Mill Run on North side of Southwest Mountains. The other moiety owned/just bought by Thomas TERRY. Deed abstract. Wits: Jno. Moore (45/2) 1775 - mentioned in Timothy's estate Accounts is a "John Dalton" without the middle initial "F"--only other possibilities were John Spike (RIN 997), John (RIN 862) who married Patience, and John RIN 911, possible son of David, grandson of Tim Sr. This John F. certainly has the closer family ties for being the right John. Other familiar names mentioned in the accounts list were: James Talbot, Benj. Tarrance, Samuel Calland, Joseph Arthur, Randolph Bobbitt, William Baber, James Flannakin [Flannagan]. (75/7) 1775 - 21 Feb: had land on Bent Cr adjoining James Flanagan (76/2) 1775 - 2 May: Pittsylvania Co, swore [not a Quaker] to appraise a stray mare along with Robert Dalton Jr, under the auspices of William Witcher (149/4) 1780 - Pitts Co, Cambden Parish. The church record processioning listed John Dalton and then specified "son of Robert." This was the first year that the father (RIN 862) of the blind children was not listed--dead?? (his wife Patients was), so I think these two facts determine two different John Daltons. John was ordered to procession lands from mouth of Old Woman's Creek up Staunton River to Pigg River then to the mouth of Frying Pan Creek. Others processioning with him were Wm Ward, Benj Tarrent, Jeremiah Ward, Field Robertson and Wm Bennett (132/30) 1781 - Pitts Co Tax List, may be the John who paid hefty sum of ú48.

His name appeared "John Dolton (Flan)" (132/53) 1803 - 1 Sept: Pitts Co, church overseer for Elizabeth Collier. This time name is listed "Jno.

Named sons: John R. with grandson Tyre, Winston, Shelton, James, and Booker; daughter Matilda Cathy [one or two people?] (148/7) 1833 - 13 Aug: date of death, according to Winston's Register (92/2) (156/3) 3 Apr 1833 is date in DNL Vol. VI no. 3 July 1980 (sent to me from Steve Harris) !FAMILY: female children are noticably absent. Four of his sons were married in Sumner Co, TN and in doc 92/7 there are many unidentified marriages of young Miss Daltons, some of which must be daughters of John F. [MDC] // a Jean Dalton, daughter of John "T," m. Wm. Haymes 22 Dec 1794. Misread handwriting could suggest the "F" was a "T." The dates of marriage coordinate well. There is no John T. in PAF (148/2) !Source: Entire family provided by another researcher, Sally Federer, of W. Va. Nancy Samuelson's "The Dalton Gang Story" gives same list. NS says, "There were several John Daltons in Pitts. Co. VA and difficult to sort. However, Winston Dalton kept a 'Register' with names of many relatives, etc. It was kept with and handed down with original land grant to Tim, Jr., therefore it is logical that John F. is s/o Tim, Jr." !Residence: John F. is seen in Pittsylvania Co., VA on the Virginia Personal Property Tax List of 1787.

| 94 | Allen Scott appears initially in Caswell Co. records when a marriage bond issued for him to marry America Bennett on the 30 Mar. 1823. The identity of his parents are not known, however, there is some evidence that he was the brother of Azariah Scott, who died in 1858 in Caswell Co. The evidence linking Allen Scott and Azariah Scott is derived mainly from the census records. Allen Scott is living in Caswell Co. in the 1830, 1840, and 1850 censuses. In 1860 and 1870, Allen Scott and his wife America appear in the Ashe Co., NC census. A 23 year old Henry Scott is living in the household of William Bows (?) in the 1850 Caswell Co. census. Allen Scott and Henry Scott appear as heads of household in Ashe Co., NC in the 1860 census. Allen Scott is 62 and is living with America Scott. Henry Scott is 33 and living with his first wife Mary Scott. In the 1870 census for Ashe Co., 40 year old Henry Scott and 6 year old James Scott are living in the household of Allen Scott and America Scott. It appears that Henry’s first wife died and Henry moved into the household of his elderly parents. In the 1880 Ashe Co. census, Azariah H.Scott is listed as head of household and is living with Pheby Scott. 16 year old James Scott is listed as the son of Azariah. I believe that Henry Scott and Azariah H. Scott are the same person. Based on the census records, it can be concluded that Allen Scott and Azariah Scott are approximatley the same age. Allen Scott was born about 1797 while Azariah Scott was born about 1802. Both lived near Hogan’s Creek in Caswell Co. Allen named a son Azariah. Allen Scott appears in Caswell Co. in the 1830 census. His household includes 2 males under 5 (Pleasant and Azariah Henry), 1 male 5-10 (?), 1 male 20-30 (Allen), 1 female under 5 (Elizabeth), and 1 female 20-30 (America). 1830 Caswell Co., North Carolina Census, Roll 19, p. 295. In 1838, Allen Scott was bondsman for the marriage bond of Francis Browning and Mary Morton. The bond is dated 22 Dec. 1838. Katherine Kerr Kendall, Caswell County, North Carolina Marriage Bonds, 1778-1864, Geneaological Publishing Co. , p. 10. Allen Scott is recorded in the 1840 census in Caswell Co. His household includes 1 male 5-10 (James), 2 males 10-15 (Pleasant and Azariah Henry), 1 male 15-20 (?), 1 male 40-50 (Allen), 2 females under 5 (Joicey W. and Mary S.), 2 females 5-10 (Nancy L. and ?), 1 female 10-15 (Elizabeth), and 1 female 30-40 (America). 1840 Caswell Co., North Carolina Census, Roll 358, p. 123. Allen Scott is listed in the 1850 census in Caswell Co. His household includes his wife America (45), Pleasant (25), Elizabeth (21), James A. (19), Nancy L. (17), Joicey W. (15), Mary S. (13), Luther R. (6), and William F. (2). 1850 Caswell Co., North Carolina Census, Roll M432_623, p. 185. In the 1860 census, Allen Scott and his wife are living in Ashe Co., North Carolina. Their household includes Elizabeth Scott (28), Nancy (26), Joycia (24), Mary s. (22), Luther (17), and William (12). 1860 Ashe Co., North Carolina Census, Roll M653_887, p. 308. Henry Scott, age 33 and his wife Elizabeth 23, are listed on the next page. James A. Scott, is listed as head of household and is living with his wife Elizabeth and Franklin Scott 16. In 1870, Allen Scott ans his wife America are still in Ashe Co. Their household includes Elizabeth 38, Nancy 28, Joicey 26, William 19, Henry 40, and James 6. 1870 Ashe Co., North Carolina Census, Roll M593_1122, p. 535. Allen Scott and America Scott have not been found in the 1880 census, though their children remain in Ashe Co. Therefore, it is presumed that Allen Scott and America Scott died between 1870 and 1880. | Scott, Allen (I3037)
