SATTERTHWAITE FAMILY
Nancy Dunbar May 13, 2003
Does anyone know where ROSSES POINT is? A 1750s deed says Rosses Point on north side of Machapungo River. Land that was originally a patent to Frederick JONES in 1705. Since I am working on the SATTERTHWAITE family and Satterthwaite Point is just south of Leechville, I am guessing that it is located there. On the west side of the Machapungo River below old Woodstock, is Satterthwaite Creek, but that is the west side not north like the deed says. Also, west of Satterthwaite Creek is Rosses Creek, but not Rosses Point. Thank you for any help of clues.
SATTERTHWAITE FAMILY
Nancy Dunbar May 13, 2003
I have found a TARKILN CREEK near old Woodstock on the west side of the Pungo River. I have a 1809 will for Jonathan SATTERTHWAITE. His estate was being sold and his widow bought some things; others went to neighbors and relatives, William SATTERTHWAITE, Capt. Wm. SATTERTHWAITE, Little William SATTERTHWAITE, etc. The sale took 3 days so I assume everyone was a neighbor or relative. I found another map however that had a TARKILN CREEK on the south side of Pungo River across from Leechville. Are there Tarkiln Creeks in the area. Thanks.

Ginger Smith October 11, 2002
My grandmother was Claudia Grist SIMMONS (12 Dec 1887-1 Dec 1975) and her husband was Caleb Branson BELL. I am looking for more information about her father's family from Hyde Co. His name was Enoch Spencer SIMMONS (2 Jan 1855-29 Mar 1907) and his wife was Elizabeth Latham GRIST. Enoch's father was James Henry SIMMONS (28 Nov.1825-28 Jul 1881). My grandmother's unmarried sister Rebecca Wise SIMMONS wrote a little biography about her father and in it she had said her grandfather's middle name was Columbus. When I was briefly in N.C. this summer I found something in the Washington library indicating that perhaps Henry is correct. Anyway, James' wife was Rebecca Midyette WISE. I think the parents of James are Enoch SIMMONS (Oct 1780-5 Dec 1854) and Nancy SPENCER (1787-30 Oct 1843). His wife's parents are Samuel Spencer WISE and Rebecca MIDYETTE. If anyone has any further info on the SIMMONS, WISE, or SPENCER families I would like to hear from you. Thanks in advance.

SLADE
Ken Slade June 24, 1999
I have been trying for a long time to find the ancestors of Samuel SLADE. I know that he is descended from the Hyde County SLADES, but I can’t make the tie-in with the descendants of Henry SLADE, Jr. My cousin, who researched Samuel SLADE in the 1970s, recently told me that Samuel’s ancestors four generations back included two Henrys and two Johns, but he couldn’t remember the order!
My Samuel SLADE was born about 1770 in North Carolina. He was among the branch of the family that moved to South Carolina by 1790. He married Elizabeth (___?___) and had a son that must have died young. He is on the Cheraw District, SC 1790 Census. In Feb., 1791 Samuel and Elizabeth SLADE bought 100 acres from Mr. David LEE (Ref. Deed Book AA, page 283 Marlboro Co. SC). On Sept. 9, 1795, Samuel and wife Elizabeth sold their 100 acre farm on Muddy Creek to Mr. Samuel BURKETT (Ref. Deed Book E-1, page 157 Marlboro Co. SC). In 1804, Samuel moved to Barnwell Dist. SC and purchased a 300 acre plantation. On Nov. 26, 1808 Samuel applied for a passport through the Creek Nations to the territory of Mississippi. On Dec. 12, 1808, passports through the Creek Nation were issued for John COCKRAN and his family, Hardy COWARD and his family, Samuel SLADE and his family, and William COCKRAN and his family. Before his last child, Henry, was born in 1810, Samuel SLADE and family were in Washington Co., MS. Several years later, he is in Hancock Co. MS, then Marion Co., MS by 1820. He died about 1845 in Perry Co., MS. I have read as many of the will abstracts as I could find, but most have been a little early to include Samuel, born abt. 1770. I have a hunch that Samuel’s father could be John SLADE, son of John SLADE, Sr. who married Miss HODGES.
First Generation:
Henry SLADE, Jr. born 1655 England; died 1730 Sladesville, Hyde Co., NC wife: Hannah LOVERIDGE: Children:
1. John SLADE, Sr. married Miss HODGES in VA;
2. Samuel SLADE, Sr. married Miss BANKS; settled in Beaufort Co., NC;
3. William SLADE, Sr. married Frances SYLVESTER; settled in Currituck Twsp., Hyde Co., NC;
4. Benjamin SLADE (?).
Second Generation:
John SLADE, Sr. (Hyde Co. Will, 1743?): wife: Miss HODGES: Children:
1. John SLADE (had a son named Benjamin);
2. Hezekiah SLADE (died without children);
3. William Hodges SLADE (died without children);
4. Benjamin SLADE (had daughter, Lydia SLADE);
5. Mary SLADE (married Benjamin JEWEL);
6. Sarah SLADE;
7. Keziah SLADE.
Third Generation:
John SLADE (may be father of my Samuel SLADE?).
If anyone can help me in any way, I would really appreciate it.
SLADE
Florence Fulford Moore May 4, 2000

SPENCER / HARRIS / MORRIS / MACKEY
Earline Barnes May 22, 2006
In a previous query I requested information pertaining to my great grandmother Robena SPENCER. At the time I had assumed that she was of African American descent. I have since learned from Family Tree Maker mtDNA testing results, that is not the case. Robena SPENCER was of Native American ancestry. If anyone has any information on the Native American Robena SPENCER your help would be appreciated. She was born circa 1885, married Edward HARRIS (African American), on Jan. 12, 1902 and died on Feb. 17, 1925 in Washington, NC after an unsuccessful surgery for breast cancer. Her father was Sam or Samuel SPENCER, and her mother was Allie or Alice MORRIS (maternal bloodline is Native American). She was listed in the 1900 Hyde Co., NC census living with her Aunt Kissiah MACKEY, her sister Mahalia SPENCER, and cousin Arnold MACKEY. If anyone knows anything please contact me!

Searching for the origins of Jonas SQUYARS / SQUIRES. He was first found in the Hyde County deeds during the early 1700's. His deed was between he and William CAMPBELL. It appears Jonas SQUYARS traded land with CAMPBELL for land in Beaufort County. The only other SQUYARS / SQUIRES in Hyde County were the Mattamuskeet Indian. It is thought that Jonas may have been part of this tribe. I would love to hear from anyone researching this family or anyone with knowledge of this Indian Tribe.

SQUIRES
Sharon Davis July 22 2005
I am searching for who "D. Squires" was. He or perhaps SHE was found in a deed dated 1765 in Beaufort County as a witness in a deed between Appleton Squires and his "only" brother see below: Also to note this land was originally in Hyde County if you see the deed between Jonas and William Campbell.
Beaufort Deed Book 4 dated 5 August 1765 Know all men by these presents that I Appleton Squires of Beaufort County & province of North Carolina planter for & in consideration of the love & affection I have & do bear unto my only brother Eyaberton Squires of the sd County & province have given granted aliened & _____& confirmed & by these presents do freely & absolutely give grant convey & confirm unto said Eyaberton Squires his heirs & asignes forever a parcel of land in the County afsd on the N. Side of Pamptico River & E side of the Bevear dam beginning at the head of the flat branch of Martins Cart road over the bride running N. 70 E to the back line of my land & with the sd line westerly to Martins Cart road & with said road to the bridge & to the beginning containing 40 acres more or less as by deed to my father form William Campbell dated the 7th day of Feb 1750. To have & to hald the sd parcel of land containing forty acres & all houses woods waters & app____? thereto belonging unto the sd Eyaberton Squires his heirs & assigns fover & I Appleton Squires for my slf & my heirs to the said land & premises unto sd Eyaberton & his heirs & assigns shall & will warrant & defend Witness my had & seal 5th of August 1765 Appleton Squires Sealed and delivered in presende of T or J Boyd, H. Wollard, D. Squires
Please note that I believe the brother mentioned in the deed as "Eyaberton" was actually Elventon. Also I later find him in Edgefield County, South Carolina where he had a wife and some children. I am sure there are more Squires/Squyars descendants out there just with a different spelling of the name.

SWINDELL / SWINDLE / HOWE
William Brackett April 29, 2005
Looking for information on Samuel SWINDLE / SWINDELL who moved from Hyde Co. NC about 1790 to Bladen Co. NC. The area he lived in later became Columbus Co., NC. His son married Mary HOWE. The story is that Mary HOWE was the daughter of Job HOWE and that Samuel's property adjoined that of Job HOWE. I can locate an Arthur HOWE in Bladen Co. and I know he was Job's son. Does anyone know anything about this Samuel SWINDLE? Who was his wife? Samuels' son James SWINDLE moved on to Benton Co., Tennessee about 1830 and then to Alabama and Florida. James left sons in Humphries/Benton Co., TN who were my ancestors. There is also a John SWINDLE in Humphreys Co., TN about 1820 who was a Rev. War soldier and has a pension file there. His son was possibly Asa. Is there a connection between John SWINDLE and Samuel SWINDLE?
