Wanda,
I saw your post on the web board:
"My ggg grandmother was Mary Polly Caddell
b) about 1780 Moore Co., NC
d) after 1832, Bibb Co., AL
m) John Milton Glascock, Sr.
I believe she must be from the James Banks Caddell clan of Moore County. I would
appreciate anything that would help confirm this, and any information that you
have on the Caddell family."

*********************************************************************
JAMES BANKS CADDELL, born (c1730), according to family tradition came from
Ireland to the Colonies. He was first reported living during 1751 in Craven
County, NC, where he married and later moved to Cumberland County, NC by 1767.
Moore County, formed in 1784, became the home for this group of CADDELL's. Some
members of the family still live in the area. In a letter from Isaiah “Sie”
CADDELL of Sanford, NC, dated 19 Jun 1933, he stated that James (Banks) CADDELL
was born in Ireland. However, I have seen no record showing his place of birth.
One researcher showed James married Catherine Black of Craven County, NC.
Records of the National Archives, Washington, DC, listed James CADDELL's service
as a foot soldier from Craven County, NC, dated January 6, 1751, commanded by
Captain Thomas Graves, from the "district from the lower side of Sow West Crick
to the town bounds." The muster roll dated 15 Oct 1754, listed Private James CADDEL.
Deed records of Craven County, NC showed the following:
February 21, 1753, James CADDELL purchased 162 acres on the "east side of
Southwest Creek ...."
October 20, 1762, from Thomas Thames to James CADDELL, 100 acres, Book 2, page
514. James sold the land on September 26, 1771 to John Carlton.
Craven County, NC records showed on October 20, 1764, an act of annexing part of
Craven County to Dobbs County, NC, "...a line from Southwest Bridge near James
CADDELL's to Carnegy's old field and Rattle Snake branch, then a direct line to
William Randoll's Mill on Trent River...."
James CADDELL was listed in the Craven County tax rolls for 1753, 1762 and 1764.
Cumberland County, NC records included a deed dated 3 Jul 1767 which showed
James purchased 150 acres from Thomas McLendon Jr. for a sum of £50. The records
also showed James deeded a parcel of land to John Carleton in 1771. On 18 Jan
1773, James CADDELL proved a deed for William Richardson and his wife Elizabeth.
He later received a grant of 200 acres on 24 Mar 1773.
Moore County records showed a plat dated October 20, 1767, listing James CADDELL
located on McLendon's Creek above the mouth of Tom's Creek, three miles west of
the Carthage post office.
Land was listed for James CADDLE (CADDELL), 24 May 1773, 200 acres, Cumberland
County, NC, lower side of McLendons creek, south of Deep river (north part of
what became Moore county in 1784), joining Thomas McLendon.
The 1790 census of Moore County listed the following:
John Melton Glascock - 1 male (16+), 2 males (-16), 2 females
James Caddell - 4 males (16+), 2 females
Jonathan Caddell - 1 male (16+), 4 females, 1 slave

John Milton Glasscock :b. Ca 1760, Cumberland Co., NC

MARY POLLY CADDELL, daughter of James Banks and Mary (Cole) CADDELL, was born
(17 Sep 1767) and raised in Cumberland County, NC and married and later lived in
Moore County, NC. Mary and John had eight children: female, Thomas, James,
Calvin, Martha Patsy, William, John Milton Jr, and Benjamin Glascock. In 1790
census they lived next door to James CADDELL. John Milton Glasscock was the son
of Dr. George Glasscock and Martha “Patty” Howard. By 1810 they moved to
Buncombe Co, NC, then GA, TN, & then Bibb Co, Alabama in about 1822. John Milton
was the sheriff in Moore County, NC.
I'd like any additional info on Mary or the other CADDELL that you have.
