I found the 1790 Census Substitute (Tax List) for Granville County transcribed on the following website:
http://files.usgwarchives.org/nc/granville/census/1790grn.tx
I am researching my Hopkins ancestors and the only two Hopkins I find on this page is George in the Oxford District and Ann in the Tabb's Creek
District.
A Hopkins forum on Rootsweb.Ancestry.com mentions a Richard as well as a Benjamin Hopkins that were listed in the 1786 Nap Reed's district:
http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ahopkins/nc-repor.htm
I assume this is the Knap of Leebe (or Leeds) District from the aforementioned transcribed website. There are no Hopkins listed in this district. Could
there have been an error or omission in transcription?
If anyone has access to the 1786 Granville County tax list could you please look up Hopkins in the Knap (Nap) of Leed (Reed) District? Does anyone know
the correct name of the district?
Thanks for your help.

I am seeking information about the parents of James B. Jackson. He
was also known as J.B. Jackson. He was a schoolteacher and later a
Baptist minister. His obituary said he was born in Granville Co., North
Carolina in 1820. I have census records that show him in Wake Co., N.C.
in 1850 and 1860. His family left North Carolina and moved to Missouri
in 1867. He was married to Helen Knight. I just can't find out who his
parents were. I would appreciate any information you might have about
him. Thanks.

I show that my gg grandfather, Rial or Ryal Cates was a resident and

married a Nancy Lynch in Orange NC - my ggrandfather was supposedly born
in Granville Co in 1866 - James Robert Cates - later moved to Texas. If
the info I have is correct - Rial and Nancy both died in 1867 or 1868
therefore I am not sure what would have happened to JR - any help would

I'm looking for a Granville Co. deed for Nahum Sanders (1740-1795).
Nahum Sanders is first found in Granville Co., NC as witness to a land
transaction when James & Margaret Cash sold Joseph Miller 200 acres of
land (Deed Book H, pg. 54).
Nahum is listed in the 1769 Granville Co., Tar River District tax roll
with 1 white male and 7 blacks. He is also listed on the 1771 Granville
Co., tax roll.
On March 1, 1770 he witnessed the will of Milhas Miars.
He took the State Oath on May 22, 1778 in the Tar River District.
There doesn't seem to be a land grant for Nahum, so, now I am looking
for a deed.
Nahum's name is frequently misspelled and I have found "Nahum" spelled
Nahom, Naum, Naaman, and Nathan. And Sanders is misspelled Saunders and
Landers.
Nahum is our "brick wall" and any suggestions and/or information would
be greatly appreciated!

Comments:

William Ferrill was born in 1725 to John Ferrill and
Ann Bryant Ferrill, believed to be within the Bute County area of
Granville County or Edgecombe County NC. He died in Hancock County GA in
1807. He had four sons: Byrd, Benjamin, Bryant T (1769), and Archelous
b1772)Ferrill. All sons, except for Bryant were born in NC. Bryant and
Archelous were born in newly formed Bute County.
All relocated to Screven County GA around 1790.
I am interested to know whether this extended family lived in Franklin
County OR in Warren County portion of Bute County (which existed
1765-1779). The bulk of records for Bute County are, I am told, are to
stored in NC Archives & History Department in Raleigh, which I plan to
visit in September.
Ferrill has at times been spelled Ferrell. The "Oath of Allegiance"
shows the surname both ways.

I am searching for the marriage information of Nancy Hayes to Joseph

1808. Nancy is thought be have been born in NC about 1786. I have read
that Granville was not incorporated until 1810. Could someone point me
in the direction I might find records previous to this?
Known children of Joseph and Nancy Hayes Royal were: John Edward, born
February 13, 1808, North Carolina;
Peter, born 1810, North Carolina; and
James, born 1819, North Carolina. It is believed there was also a son
named William (possibly with middle initial A.)
I would be grateful to anyone that could help me find a source or links
for these names
1. Marriage record (Joseph Royal & Nancy Hayes)
2. Birth records for any of the children.
Thanks to everyone that reads this request of a novice to NC searches.
