General Notes: Husband - Samuel Swearingen

---

He was probably born in Somerset County, Maryland, and emigrated to Edgecombe County, North Carolina, about 1735; he resided in Edgecombe and Anson counties.
His sons fought valiantly in the Revolutionary war, in which they became officers. They left numerous descendants in all the southern states. Many of them inherited the military genius of their ancestors and have been gallant soldiers in every war in which this country has participated, and have been and are to-day leaders in every state in legislation, in the professions and in business pursuits.
