General Notes: Husband - James Culbertson

---

James took out a warrant, No. 17 in Jan., 1761, for 360 acres on North Hico and Limber Creek, in Orange Co., N. C. In Oct., 1782, he took out a Warrant No. 340, for 300 acres of land on both sides of Hico Creek in Caswell Co., N. C. (Caswell formed from Orange Co. in 1777). In description of meets and bounds in latter warrant James, it says "Beginning at a large pine corner of his deeded line and running along said line." This refers to his warrant of 1761. Part of the lands he owned were in Chatham Co. and close to Pearson Co. line. It is possible that James swore he was of age in 1761 when he may have been only 17 or 18 years old. (As I have known of one instance in Pa.) James Culbertson of Orange Co., N. C., and Caswell and Chatham Co., N. C., besides Hico Creek farm owned 350 acres on Fall Creek, Chatham Co., N. C. This was deeded Nov. 19, 1824 by Josiah Culbertson acting by Power of Atty. then residing (Josiah) in Warren Co., Tenn. He deeded two-thirds interest of this 350 acres on Fall Creek, Chatham Co. to James Culbertson of Montgomery Co., N. C. Josiah was attorney for William, Joseph, Lawrence, Andrew, Aaron and Jonathan Culbertson, all of Warren Co., Tenn., and heirs to James Culbertson of Chatham Co., deceased. He deeded land in Caswell Co. to a Joseph and James Culbertson in 1787. This was his nephew Joseph and son, James, Jr.
James, Sr., Census 1790, self, two sons under 16 years, wife and two daughters, Chatham Co. James apparently did not die in Chatham or Orange Co., N. C. Probably died in Tenn.

Re: James, Sr. - The Clerk of Court of Warren Co., Tenn., finds no will or admin. of James or any other Culbertson. Where did his sons move to from Warren Co., Tenn.?
