Nash County Surnames, 1777 – 1820: Letters T through Z

NASH COUNTY SURNAMES FOUND IN COUNTY RECORDS, 1777 through 1820 :  LETTERS T through Z

SURNAMES OF NASH COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA

Additional Posting of Research by Earl P. Bell, Jr.:  17 May 2010 [now includes the Nash surnames for signers of the 1777 petition to the North Carolina General Assembly to create Nash County out of western Edgecombe County, NC and the 1782 Tax List for the county]

These postings record, in alphabetical order, all the surnames of families living in Nash County from 1777 to 1820 as their names appear in the petitions, tax lists, census , county court and deeds of property.  Now that this project is completed, we should add those surnames that appear, especially in land transactions at physical locations that, after 1777, become Nash County.  As most of you know, this is a huge project and I will need everyone’s help to make this recording as accurate as is humanly possible.

On the information provided from the 1782 Tax List, readers will find, in brackets, three numbers, in consecutive order.  The numbers are in the following sequence: [1] the number of acres owned; [2] the number of slaves; and [3] the value of all real and personal property expressed in pounds, not dollars.  Not listed are the number of mules, horses and cattle or the distribution of neighbors in a geographic assessment area.  If you wish that information please email me.

The surnames posted here are hostage of the understanding and recording by numerous census takers and record keepers over time.  For example, one census taker recorded “Boddie” as “Boddy” because that is what he was told and it is the correct pronunciation and the wrong spelling.  So, please check the information on your families and send to me corrections and additions.

PLEASE MAKE CORRECTIONS ON YOUR FAMILY’S SURNAMES SO THAT WE CAN MAKE THE NASH COUNTY LIST AS ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE.
