(a William Anderson is listed but he is under the list of Captain Jacob Whitehead’s Company who I am of the opinion is William of Tarboro, died 1789. This raises a question of where was the William of Halifax during the mid 1750s since all men between 16-60 were required to be in the militia. This muster was for the mid 1750s.)

OK I finally did it! I want to know if you think William is the father of Isom and is this your William or another one? Also, do you know the other children of your William? Is there a DNA link to him? Thanks! Joy

I am a descendant of William of Tarboro area… he died 1789.
My guy… https://andersonnc.wordpress.com/william-d-1789/
This William of Halifax County is another fella. I have noted virtually everything I can find about him in the above notes.
I merely speculate that the other Andersons near him “may” have been related??????
He perplexes me and I am left scratching my head… no other researchers that I know of have gotten any closer than I have in figuring him out.

Might this be of any help in your research? I noticed the Anderson and thought, of course, of this site. You’ve helped me a lot! “November 26, 1744- Ralph R. Vickers of Isle of Wight Co. Va. deeded to Samuel Wilkins of James City Co. for 41 pounds currant money 200 acres adjoining the former William Williams plantation purchased in 1718, plus 175 acres adjoining George Pierce’s land and John Silleway, William Carver, William Williams and Richard Carver. (Part of the patent of Geo. Anderson 1710). Witnessed by John Dunkley and Thomas Williamson.” found here: http://kvickers.tfc.edu/Ralph_Edgecombe_Co_NC.htm

Sorry — for context, the Vickers were intermarried with the Carnells, which is why I plopped that comment on this page, having noticed you had picked out the Carnells above.

Ralph Vicars bought the George Anderson property in Isle of Wight… about 1710 if I remember correctly. Then George simply disappears. No trace whatsoever that I can find.
An Elizabeth was the wife of George in IOW and left a signature mark in a deed of sale. Also an Elizabeth Anderson dies in North Carolina in 1733. She also left a mark on her will of the same date. The marks do not match. However to my utter dismay, her mark in 1733 was scratched by her granddaughter (if I remember correctly)… “interlined” as it was noted on the will. So there is not a definitive “disproof” that they are not the same woman.
It is my “theory” that they were one and the same.

The meager amount of info I have found for the Carnell folks of Halifax, NC have not jolted me to action… but they are still on my radar to research.
