Box 617, Goldsboro, NC 27533-0617 Jan-Feb-Mar 2002 Vol. 18- Nos. 1, 2 & 3 GREETINGS FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friends: As we begin the New Year, I hope you and your families had a happy holiday season. I wish each of you a very happy and prosperous 2002. The past year was an extraordinary year with the events of September 11 forever etched into our minds. But, as we move on we can be thankful to be living in a free country that has been so blessed by God. I pray that each of you have a feeling of pride in our country and thankfulness for our blessings. We wish to express our sincere sympathy to the family of Mayor Hal Kiser Plonk who died on December 29, 2001 after a two-year battle with leukemia. Mr. Plonk had been Mayor of Goldsboro for 22 years, from 1979-2001. He was the longest seated mayor in the state of North Carolina. He was known as a friend to all and his contributions to the growth and development of Goldsboro will not be forgotten. Those of you not attending the Annual Meeting and Workshop of the North Carolina Genealogical Society in November missed a treat. The workshops were exceptional this year with several outstanding speakers presenting topics about migration to and from North Carolina. I would encourage you to use the educational opportunities provided by the state society to assist you in your research. You can obtain additional information on this valuable resource by writing to the North Carolina Genealogical Society, P. O. Box 1492, Raleigh, NC 27602 or going to web page http//www.ncgenealogy.org. The Constitution and Bylaws Committee met on November 19, 2001 and began a review of the Society's governing documents. It is still unclear if the original documents were ever revised and if so, where the revised documents are located. Assuming none can be found the committee will work from the original ones, which is very much outdated, and offer recommended changes to them. The committee will continue its work on the constitution and bylaws at a meeting in January. The next meeting of the Old Dobbs County Genealogical Society will be held on Saturday, January 26, 2002 at the Western Sizzlin at the comer of Berkeley Boulevard and East Ash Street in Goldsboro. Mr. Maury York will be the guest speaker. Mr. York is in charge of the North Carolina Collection at East Carolina University in Greenville. Please come and bring a friend. Sincerely, Billy Herring, President T I M E T O R E N E W F O R 2 0 0 2 ! ! Unsure if you have paid your dues for 2002?

Please send all queries and other genealogical inquiries to Old Dobbs County Genealogical Society, P.O. Box 617, Goldsboro, NC 27533-0617. BASS / COOK / SIMPSON Seeking information on Martha SIMPSON (b. 1872) m. John Henry BASS (b. 1863). Also seeking info on Julie COOK (b. 1851) who married Simon BASS (b. 1847). They were divorced after my grandfather Henry (b. 1876) was born. These are my great grandparents. Faye SHERBERT, 3943 Cove Road, Edgewater, MD 21037 e-mail: [email protected] COWARD/COW ART / ROBERTS Seeking others researching the COWARD/COW ART line. I am particularly interested in Edward COWARD (b. 1726 Bertie Co, NC, d. 1788 Greene Co, NC) who married Dorcas ROBERTS. I am also interested in their son, Ephraim (b. 1756 Dobbs Co, NC) and his spouse and children. Nancy SIMS, 2825 Townley Circle, Doraville, GA 30340-4825, e-mail: [email protected] TUCKER Trying to find proof of the parents and siblings of my 3rd great grandfather, Henry TUCKER (b. ca 1769 probably in NC, but place unknown). Henry married Mary GRANT (b. ca. 1769) of Lenoir County, NC around 1795 and they had three children - Kinchen TUCKER (b. ca 1799), Piersey TUCKER (b. ca 1800-1810) and Sarah Ann TUCKER (b. ca 1800-1810). By 1790 Mary's mother, also named Mary Grant and a widow, had moved with her family to Washington Co, VA. Henry and Mary TUCKER also moved to Washington Co, VA by 1800. Henry lived in Dobbs Co. with his parents (and possible siblings) at the time he married, but I have been unable to find marriage, land or probate records naming Henry and/or his parents directly. The only TUCKERS of the right place and time to be possible father's for Henry were John TUCKER or Thomas TUCKER who owned land in the area from the 1760's on, near the Grant's property. Any help will be appreciated. Terria FLEMING, P.O. Box 2314, Salem, OR 97308 WOOTEN Have traced my ancestor to Robert WOOTEN (b. 20 Nov 1787 or 1790, Dobbs Co, NC). He was in Lenoir County for the 1810, 1820 and 1830 census. He went to Mississippi after that. I believe Robert to be the son of Shadrack WOOTEN (b. ca 1756, d. 12 Apr 1812 Columbus Co. NC) and Elizabeth ALLEN. Seeking proof of this relationship for a DAR application.

The meeting was called to order by Billy Herring. There were 21 members and 3 guests in attendance. Elliott Futrell gave the invocation after which we repeated the Pledge of Allegiance. Minutes from the July meeting were read and approved and the treasurer's report was accepted with a balance of $7,504.51. For old business, the committee indexing Old Dobbs newsletters reported that they are making progress. Elliott Futrell requested that anyone who would be interested in indexing the cemetery book to please get in touch with him. Ann Humphries volunteered to show someone how to do the indexing with the computer. Laura Alley and Cathy Blow will be in touch with her. The Bylaws and Constitution Committee will meet on November 19 to review and recommend any changes that need to be made. For new business, Laura Alley requested comments regarding the Surname Index. The new form containing columns for the ancestor's first and last names, spouse, and dates will be in the next newsletter. Johnny Joyner, a historian at the Charles B. Aycock birthplace, was our speaker. His program consisted of highlights of NC's firsts, interests, and outstanding citizens, past and present. He also included a brief statement about many of the historical sites in North Carolina. After comments and questions by the audience, the meeting was adjourned. Submitted by, Barbara Lancaster, Recording Secretary Vol.18 Nos. 1.2 A 3 OLDE DOBBS TRAIL Page 4 SURNAME INDEX - We will again be doing a surname index for our membership (dues paid for 2002). As in the past, this index will contain the complete name of the ancestor and his or her spouse. A form for submitting your surname information is attached to the back of the newsletter. Please complete the form and return it to the society as soon as possible. Please fill out the form legibly. Please do not include more than one name per block (ancestor or spouse), as only one name will be used. If you wish to show an ancestor with two different spouses, then please use two separate entries (rows). The Surname Index is not limited to the Dobbs County area. You can submit information in other North Carolina counties or other states. However, please remember that space is limited. Each member is allowed 10 entries. If you have a joint membership (husband and wife), then you will be allowed a total of 20 entries (10 each). Should you have any questions about completing the form, you can contact Laura Alley at [email protected]. POWERS OF ATTORNEY 1824-1893, Broken Series Wayne Co, NC Miscellaneous Records (N.C.

Vol. 18- Nos. 4, 5 & 6 GREETINGS FROM lItp^R|gl^ENT Dear Friends: Spring is around the corner and will provide more opportunities to get out and work on the cemetery project. Both Elliott Futrell and myself have been unable to devote as much time on the project during the past year because of other pressing commitments. Cathy Blow and others have stepped forward and have taken up some of the slack. We are very appeciative of that. Anyone that is interested in helping with the cemetery survey please contact Cathy or Elliott. On behalf of the entire Old Dobbs membership, I would like to offer condolences to the family of Ima E. Mewbom. She died on February 5, 2002 following a period of ill health. Miss Mewborn was a longtime member of the Old Dobbs County Genealogical Society. Much of her life was devoted to the interest of geneaology where she contributed a great deal of her time and resources helping others research their family lines. She was also a member of several other genealogical societies including the Daughters of the American Revolution. Congratulations to Laura Alley on receiving the prestigious Joe. M. McLaurin Newsletter Award for her outstanding work as editor of "Old Dobbs Trail", our society's newsletter. We also thank her for her contribution of hardwork and dedication in making the newsletter great and informative. Congratulations also to 1st Vice President, Lisa Corbett, who was recently named the Goldsboro Business Woman of the Year. She will compete nationally for the American Business Woman of the Year award. The April 27th meeting will be the last meeting to be held at the Western Sizzlin. When the initial arrangements were set up with the Western Sizzlin some years ago, the agreement was that the Society would guarantee a minimum of 40 diners. We have been falling far short of that number, therefore we have been asked to look for other accommodations. The July 27th meeting will be held in the Weil Auditorium at the Wayne County Public Library. The meeting time will be discussed at the upcoming meeting. The next meeting of the Old Dobbs County Genealogical Society will be held on Saturday April 27, 2002 at the Western Sizzlin at the comer of Berkeley Boulevard and East ash Street in Goldsboro. Please make plans to attend this important meeting. The revised constitution and bylaws, which are printed in this edition of the newsletter for your review, will be voted on at this meeting. Jerome Tew, the Director of the Family History Center in Goldsboro, will give a presentation on the Family History Center and what it can do to help with your genealogical research.

It seems that the engineer of the extra train from Wilmington was backing his engine, when the unfortunate man attempted to climb up on the tender, and in the rear of it, but missing his footing, fell on the track and was crushed in a most shocking manner. He died instantly, both legs being cut off, and his body torn to pieces. No blame is attached to the engineer.

VTAi We are well into summer now and I hope this has given you the opportunity to get out and traipse through some cemeteries in your search for long lost relatives. If you enjoy being outside, volunteers are still needed for the cemetery abstraction project. We have recently implemented a team concept for the project. A team leader has been assigned for all the townships and will be responsible for the work in their assigned areas. They will need help. If you would like to volunteer for a particular township, contact Cathy Blow at 735-1089 and she will direct you to the appropriate team leader. I especially want to thank Cathy for her great effort with the cemetery project and for developing and organizing the team concept. Member participation is the catalyst that drives any organization. I would encourage each of you to attend the meetings and enjoy the great programs and fellowship that is available there. Membership recruitment should also be a priority of ours. Invite your friends and family members to become "Old Dobbs" members. I am pleased to announce that the revised constitution and bylaws were approved at the April 27, 2002 by member vote. I want to thanks all those who worked hard and diligently to bring our governing documents in line with our current operating requirements. We have a new meeting place and time. Our next meeting will be Saturday, July 27 at 10:00 a.m. in the Weil Auditorium at the Wayne County Public Library. The library is located on the corner of Ash Street and Jackson Street in Goldsboro. Upon entering the library's automatic door, the Weil Auditorium will be to the right. We hope you will make time to visit the Local History Room in the library before or after the meeting. Our speaker will be Mrs. Betty Duncan, Director of the Wayne County Museum. She will be discussing the challenges faced by small museums. She will also have an update on the mission and goals for the Wayne County Museum. I look forward to seeing you there.

We hope to publish the Surname Index in the early fall. If we do not receive a Surname Index form from you, but you included a list of surnames on your membership renewal form, we will publish those surnames with your name, mailing address and e-mail address (if available). If you do not wish this information to be published, please let us know. State (NC) Library's Genealogical Services - they will have by late summer the 1930 population schedules and Soundex for NC available for use at the library. However, they will be unable to have the 1930 NC census microfilm available for interlibrary loan due to budget constraints. They are introducing to their Core Collection of microfilm for interlibrary loan, the Estate Papers (unbound documents) for 21 NC counties. These will be available to North Carolina residents through their local libraries. These records are being microfilmed by the Genealogical Society of Utah at the State Archives. As funds permit, they hope to build on this collection to include the estate holdings of all 100 counties. An OCLC Work Form will have to be used in requesting the Estate Records Microfilm for interlibrary loan as the estate records have been cataloged and have an OCLC number. The instructions for "Submitting Requests for Estate Records Loans" will soon be available at the Interlibrary Loan Section of the State Library's web page at http://statelibrary.dcr.state.nc.us/rsb/ILLGenealogy.htm. The library will continue to lend up to 6 reels per request for each borrower. The following counties have been or will be microfilmed: Beaufort (1760-1949), Bertie (17301920), Burke (1776-1934), Bute (1764-1779), Carteret (1744-1957), Caswell(l772-1941), Chatham (1771-1948), Chowan( 1728-1951), Craven (1745-1945), Cumberland (1758-1930), Duplin (1752-1930), Edgecombe (1748-1917), Franklin (1781-1934), Gates (1765-1920), Mecklenburg (1762-1957), Nash (1770-1909), Orange (1754-1944), Pasquotank (1712-1931), Perquimans (1714-1930), Rowan (1753-1929), Wake (1770-1941). Please note that as of May 2002 not all county estate microfilming projects have been completed and that the State Library has not purchased all of those which are currently available. The microfilmed estate records for counties which filming projects have been completed may also be ordered from your local Family History Center (Mormon Church).

The experience has been rewarding and I am pleased at some of the things we have been able to achieve. My only regret is that we did not get our first volume of Wayne County cemeteries published during this term. I do feel the project is going in a very positive direction, especially now that we are getting more members involved with the management and abstraction tasks associated with the project. I ask for your continued patience. I feel the end product will be worth the wait. Among our accomplishments was the rewriting and updating of our constitution and bylaws, which also accounts for my shorten term as president. Our current governing document now call for our fiscal year to coincide with the calendar year, thus the current board will leave office six months early. However we do have an excellent and dedicated group of officers that will continue where this board leaves off. Most of the current board members will continue in one capacity or the other. The election of officers will occur at the October 26 meeting and I invite and encourage each of you to come, vote and show support for the new board. President Lisa Corbett 1st Vice President Cathy Blow 2nd Vice President Guy Potts Recording Secretary Barbara Lancaster Treasurer Georgia Futrell Corresponding Secretary Laura Alley Because of my increased involvement with the Lions Clubs organization, I have not been able to give the Society the attention that I feel it deserves, and I do apologize for that. Hopefully, you will let me return at some later time when I have sufficient time to do a more thorough job. Thank you for letting me serve you. And, I also want to thank the other officers for their cooperation and hard work in moving the Society forward. You have been great! Our next meeting will be Saturday, October 26 at 10:00 am in the Weil Auditorium at the Wayne County Public Library. The speaker will be Mr. Gary Barefoot, Curator of the Free Will Baptist Historical Collection, Moye Library, Mt. Olive College. He will discuss the resources available at the Moye library and the Free Will Baptist Collection.

Please send all queries and other genealogical inquiries to Old Dobbs County Genealogical Society, P.O. Box 617, Goldsboro, NC 27533-0617. Seeking any information, will, estate papers, marriage bonds, etc. on William COBB, father of David COBB that migrated to Madison Co., AL in 1809. The data I have is that this William COfcB (b. ca lv-30, Craven Co., KC., d. 12 Feb 1797 Wayne Co., NC) m. Sarah STANCIL (STANSELL, STANSAL) 1755, Dobbs Co., NC. His son, David COBB (b. 1760, Dobbs Co., N.C, d. 1839, Madison Co., AL), m. Martha BRYANT. He was a Dobbs Co. Minutemen, 1775, under Captain Jesse COBB. Every source I have found cites William COBB and Sarah STANCIL as David COBB's parents, but no proof whatsoever. Who are William's parents? One history book states that this William's parents were Henry COBB and Mary HARDY of Bertie Co., N.C. Another source has this William as son of Joseph COBB and Catherine WHITEHEAD. Yet a third has him as son of a James COBB. I cannot travel to North Carolina at this time, and would most appreciate any help whatsoever!

New business: The North Carolina Genealogical Society would like to conduct a seminar, featuring a nationally known speaker, in our area sometime next summer. To do this, they would need for our local society to make arrangements for the meeting place and the meal.

The motion was seconded and carried by a majority vote. There was no further new business. Billy Herring introduced our speaker, Betty Duncan, Director of the Wayne County Museum.

Vol.18 Nos. 10.11 & 1 2 OLDE DOBBS TRAIL Page 6 ELISHA UZZELL Submitted by Rose Parks, 1723 CR 4530, Avery, TX 75554-9722 Son of Thomas (and Catherine?) Uzzell of Bertie, Dobbs and Wayne County, NC The July -September 1994 'Olde Dobbs Trail" contains an article, "Which Elisha Uzzell" by Betty Fisher Cox. This deals with which Elisha is the actual son of the man we will look at in this article. Elisha is a popular name in the Uzzell Family and so it is difficult to know how they fit. The Elisha, son of Thomas (about 1715- Oct. 1772) is not hard to define, as in this early time in NC, he was the only Elisha in this area. Several items I have included on the Dobbers web page [http:www.freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~paday/index.htm] have been taken from others notes and writings. I have not seen the documents quoted. Elisha was the chain bearer in the grant his father received in Sept. 1754 between Bear Creek and Walnut Creek. He is said to have received this land in a deed in 1757. Sadly, the old deeds of Dobbs County are gone. Elisha is listed as a voter in the Dobbs Co., NC list in 1769 and 1779. Elisha Uzzell and Joshua Herring were appointed Executors in the will of Elisha's father, Thomas in Oct. 1772,1 and the estate was not yet settled in 1785.2 Wayne County Deed Book 3, page 32: John Burley to John Anderson 10 June 1782 land on Walnut Creek Witnesses were Elisha Uzzell, Sr., Pheribe Uzzell and Elisha Uzzell, Jr. District 4- 1786 Wayne Co. Tax List Elisha Uzzell, Sr. 927 acres, 2 polls, and 4 slaves. Elisha Sr. is on the Wayne Co. census in 1790 with 2 males over 16, 1 male under 16-3 females and 5 slaves. Elisha Uzzell may have supplied goods to the Army. This in itself qualifies him for Patriot Service and descendants can use this to gain entry into DAR and SARI believe, but there are no 1 Returns of Wills and Administrations Granted In NC 1752-1790 by Ransom McBride, published in NCGS J May 1988 page 98 2 From the NC Archives from Wayne Co. Records original estates 1782-1937 CR.103.508.158 is the following received in request of a copy for Thomas Uzzells will. State of North Carolina To the Sheriff of Wayne Co.: Greetings. You are hear by commanded to take the bodies of John Hanks and Simon Totevine, late of Wayne Co., yeomen (if to be found in your baliwick) and them safely keep so that you have them before the Justices of the County Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions at next Court, to be held for the County of Wayne at the Courthouse in Wayne on the Second Monday in July next term and there to answer to Elisha Uzzell and Joshua Herring Executors of Thomas Uzzell deceased of a plea of covenant broken damages fifty pounds. Herein fail not; and have you there this writ: Witness James Cobb Clerk of said Court at Wayne this 12th day of April in the ninth year of the Independence of America, Anno Domini 1785. Issued this 13th day of April 1785. James Cobb C.C. Also from the same file is a summons for John Hanks and Moses Standley late of Dobbs County, worded exactly the same and fined ( or damage) 50 pounds with same date. Vol.18 Nos. 10.11 & 12 OLDE DOBBS TRAIL Page 7 records in the NC Archives for Service or pensions or Militia.34 In the Deed Books of Wayne County, published in "Kinfolks of Wayne Co., NC 1793-1832 by Joseph W. Watson" are given to establish part of his family. Deed Book 5 page 218 Elisha Uzzell gives to his son Major Uzzell 500 acres, goodwill and love 10 January 1793. Deed Book 5-E, page 170, Elisha Uzzell deed of gift to John Wilson, son of Phereba, his wife. August 21, 1794 Wilson and Deed Book 8 page 322 Pheraby Uzzell, deed of gift to her son James Uzzell, for all the property belonging to her. September 27,1805. The many articles I have seen on Elisha Uzzell have him married to Dorcas Stanley. There is a tombstone at Walnut Creek in Wayne County for them with Elisha Uzzell 1736-1813 and his wife Dorcas Stanley Uzzell and others. I can not dispute that he may have been married to a Dorcas Stanley, although she is said to be a daughter of Major Stan(d)ley and even though I have searched records I can not find a Major Stan(d)ley, and I do not find records to prove Elisha's marriage to Dorcas. One Dorcas Stanley did marry Jacob Herring, Jr. One fact about the tombstone I know is incorrect is that of Elisha's death date. His will was written 11 February 1795 and proven October court term 1798. (He has to be dead by this time) Last Will and Testament of Elisha Uzzell - In the name of God, Amen. The eleventh day of February in the year of our Lord Christ, one thousand, seven hundred and ninety five, I Elisha Uzzell of Wayne, and State of North Carolina, being of sound and perfect mind and memory, thanks be to God, but calling to mind that it is ordained for all men once to die, do make and ordain in Christian manner at the discretion of my Executors here after named. My just debts being first paid, I give and dispose of my estate wherewith it hath pleased God to bless me in the manner and form following. Viz. I lend to my beloved wife, my water mill, my riding horse, one feather bed and furniture and one Negro woman named Judah during her widowhood. Item -1 give and bequeath to my daughter Salley Wasdin twenty-five shillings. I give and bequeath to my son Elisha Uzzell twenty-five shillings. I give and bequeath to my daughter Lucretia Smith twenty shillings. I give and bequeath to my son Major Uzzell twenty-five shillings. I give and bequeath to my daughter Feraby Wilson, eight shillings. I give and bequeath to my daughter Kezia Smith twenty-five shillings. 3 North Carolina State Library research staff, Joy McGee Heitmann, in response to a letter dated July 10, 2000, "Thomas and Elisha Uzzell are not listed in the Service records, or pension records or as North Carolina militia. They could possibly been paid for civilian service." 4 Ancestry.com does not show Elisha as a Soldier nor in the DAR Book. Vol.18 Nos. 10.11 & 1 2 OLDE DOBBS TRAIL Page 8 I give and bequeath to my son James Uzzell my plantation whereon I now live on Walnut Creek and the Land there unto belonging. Likewise one still and one Negro man named Luke and one Negro woman named Rachel to him his heirs and assigns forever, and my will is that my two Negroes Vis. Ben and Caleb, my land lying on Bear Creek, and all the remaining part of my property whether within or without doors be sold and equally divided between my beloved wife and four of my children Vis. Salley Wasdin, Polley Uzzell, Elisha Uzzell, Lucretia Smith and Major Uzzell. {Note: He says four of his children, but lists 5 unless the Polley Uzzell has been misread and should be Pharabe). Lastly I do hereby nominate, appoint and ordain my two sons-in-law, Jonathan Wasdin and Arthur Smith my executors of this my last will and testament hereby making null and void all aforementioned wills and testaments by me made and this only to be my last will and testament hereby ratifying and confirming the same in witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and fix my seal the day and year above written. Elisha Uzzell (his signature) Signed, Sealed, published and declared by the testator to be his Last Will and Testament in presents of us. Test. William Lancaster John Smith Joseph Strikling (His Mark) [I do not have a copy of the original will but a transcription from the book "Uzzell Ancestry" by Minter Uzzell.] Many times with a second marriage and with children of both, the will may read "my now wife" but this is not the case in this will. He treats all pretty much the same. By the deeds above, at least James and Fereby/Pharabe are children of Elisha and Pharabe.
