Hi Everyone: Checked back in the library. From NC Genealogy Reference (By Draughon & Johnson) 975.6 D767n2 ***Item #117 WILLIAM SUGGS born 1791, wife ELIZABETH ? [I'm not sure of county] When I checked, I just looked at date. It might have been in Edgecombe Co. but I'm not certain. They may have not even shown it. Here's a few more extracts from NC Genealogy Reference by Wallace R. Draughon 1956 - 975.6. This may have been a different publication from the earlier one. Item #182 - Submitted by Mrs. W.R. Eckhardt, Jr., 4522 Willow Bend Blvd., Bellaire, TX. Rev. Theophilus Skinner b. 1785 Prequimans Co, wife Mary Pitts, who moved to SC, to KY, to AL. [I assume they both moved. This is copied pretty much as shown.] Item #694 - George Sugg b. 1677 [This is all I have-- seems like I sent this earlier, maybe from a different source.] Item #71 - Leara Malvina Sugg b. 1745 (Greene Co.)

On "Ester, Dau. of Lott & Prudance Maund, borne ye 15th Feb 1752." I told you it came from McIntosh, but have been hard put to find it again. If he doesn't have another book then maybe I found it elsewhere. I will try to find this again. .......................................................... I glanced over your msg sent earlier this evening but haven't spent much time on it yet. I noticed WILLOUGHBY. I have some notes I took the other day from Princess Ann Co, VA (Land and Probate Records). It includes MAUNDS, WILLOUGHBYS, CATONS, SUGGS, and ALLENS, but I will hold these for another night. It is near two am. Oh, one other thing, we were talking about the people that paid taxes in Pitt Co. and I had mentioned the middle initial of CHARLES ALLEN as possibly being "S." The book I went through the other day, NC Taxpayers, does not appear to be the same one that I had seen earlier. I photocopied these pages (not trusting my handwriting this time). In this book it is shown as "Charles s. Wm FWV 1771." Now I take this to mean: Charles, son of William Allen. So we can discount the middle name of Sugg and as him being son of our JACOB ALLEN. But there other Charles listed though I don't see any from Pitt Co. I'll put some of these together along with some of the SUGG listed. It is now after two and now I will shut it down. Gotta be up at 6:30. Bill
