| 8. | James Stewart was born Abt 1750, Virginia, USA (son of Rebecca Stewart); died 1815, Craven, North Carolina, USA. Other Events:
Notes:
James Stewart, born say 1750, was living in Brunswick County, Virginia, on 11 January 1774 when he and Littleberry Pompey of Sussex County purchased 270 acres in Meherrin Parish, to be equally divided between them as if two separate deeds had been made. He purchased 50 acres on the north side of the Maherrin River in Brunswick County adjoining Richard Branscomb and Thomas Evans on 23 November 1778 [DB 11:251-3; 13:280]. He was taxable in Meherrin Parish, Brunswick County, from 1782 to 1796 [PPTL 1782-98, frames 19, 206, 271, 325, 401, 497, 543]. On 26 January 1778 he and Littleberry Pompey and wife Nanny Pompey (James's sister?) sold 135 acres in Meherrin Parish, Brunswick County, adjoining Steward's Branch. And on 15 August 1792 James and his wife Sarah sold for 50 pounds 137 acres on Buckwater Creek in Meherrin Parish, Brunswick County, adjoining Dempsey Stewart's land [DB 13:45; 15:498]. He may have been the James Stewart who married Sally Evans, 2 May 1791 Warren County, North Carolina bond, Eaton Walden bondsman. James and his wife Sarah sued (his brother) William Stewart and his wife Keziah in Brunswick County on 23 November 1795, but the case was dismissed at the defendant's costs [Orders 1795-8, 1, 211]. He was head of a Wake County household of 6 "other free" in 1800 [NC:798]. By his Wake County will, proved in November 1824, he left his land to his children: Evans, Beedy (married James Walden), Mackey (married Joel Stuart), Tazewell, Dickson, Elijah, and Elisha [WB 19:130]. His children were
i. Evans, married Milly Stuart, 15 November 1817 Wake County bond, Joel Stuart bondsman.
ii. Beedy, married James Walden.
iii. Mackey, married Joel Stuart, 2 January 1821 Wake County bond.
iv. Tazewell.
v. Dickson.
vi. Elijah.
vii. Elisha.
James married Sally Evans 2 May 1791, Warren, North Carolina, USA. Sally (daughter of Isaac Evans) was born Abt 1770, Chapel Hill, Orange, North Carolina, USA; died 1823, Craven, North Carolina, USA. [Group Sheet]

| 9. | Sally Evans was born Abt 1770, Chapel Hill, Orange, North Carolina, USA (daughter of Isaac Evans); died 1823, Craven, North Carolina, USA. Other Events:
Notes:
Evans is a surname found in Bladen in 1168 and 1790.
David and Theophilus Evens were located in current Bladen in 1189.
Elizabeth Evans was located east of Great Swamp by 1780. In the 1850
census of Robeson they reported having been born in Richmond County by
1800. White (1988) feels that those named Evans possibly descended from
Saponi Indians living next to the plantation of Col. William Eaton in
Granville County in the 1750s. The name was given as mulatto in Robeson
but most carrying the name Evans have typically been White and Scottish as
found in north Robeson near St. Pauls. Name self-identified as Indian in the
1900 Census of Robeson and listed on the 1900 Indian Census Schedule.
Death records show the Indian name in 1954 in Maxton township. Cited at
New Prospect Methodist Church cemetery and elsewhere by Jane Blanks
Barnhill in Sacred Grounds, 2007, a listing of 162 Lumbee cemeteries in
Robeson County.

Notes:
Kinchen2, born say 1784, head of a Chatham County household of 6 "other free" in 1810 [NC:195]. On 15 August 1821 he purchased 154 acres in Chatham County on the south side of Cape Fear River near the Ferry Road and Drake's land for $430 and sold this land seven years later on 25 December 1828 for $200. On 3 April 1829 he sold the 150 acres on Bush Creek which he received as one of the heirs of (his father?) Ishmael Roberts [DB X:320; AB:134, 186]. He was head of a Lost Creek Township, Vigo County, Indiana, household in 1850. He was a sixty-five-year-old, born in Virginia, with $3,000 estate, living with Nancy, fifty-eight years old, born in North Carolina [Household no. 202].
***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
The buying power of a $3,000 in 1850, would be equal to over $500,000 in value in 2012. The property value of 200+ acres in 2012, would be close to $1, 000,000. Kinchen was affluent in North Carolina, before coming to Lost Creek, and even more so after settling here. The Roberts family resided on Indian Reservation property in Robeson County, North Carolina, and are counted as Indian, on the Lumbee Tribal rolls. Being affluent, the Roberts family were also slave OWNERS, while residing in North Carolina.
