COLONIAL RECORDS OF LENOIR COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA ALSO KNOWN AS THE LOVIT
HINES COLLECTION - abstracted from Microfilm Roll MF - 95 by Martha
Mewborn Marble
NOTE: Lovit Hines collected as many originals or copies of original
documents located in private hands as he knew about and had the NC Archives
place said documents on microfilm. Some of these original documents are
still in the possession of private individuals and some have been placed at
the NC Archives or other institutions in Collections. I have tried not to
duplicate individual records already abstracted from various sources
especially the Edwards Collection where the original Hill and many of the
Hardee documents are found. No doubt many of the originals of records in
this Collection are in the James Hines and Wiatt Hines Collections, but
they have not been abstracted as yet. The researcher also needs to refer
to the Lenoir County Archives Page for those records dated after Dobbs
County was abolished.

Subject: [Carruthers] Greatest Rev War Caswell W'ton story I know
Hi again Martha Rice, [& Pat Nelson <Pat Nelson>
nels095(a)ibm.net & Caswell
Co-L etc]
In your &/or Rice-L emails, there is mention of Caswell Co & Pat Nelson
nels095(a)ibm.net:
===================
"stonewall jackson wrote: Pat, No, I don't mind at all. What I have been
able to get out of it so far is that
Sarah Womack married a Rice. Their children were Thomas (father of
Wm.
Sally, Nancy, Charles, and Benjamin), Francis (widow Jamima and son Isham),
Abraham, Fanny Rice (may be a widow of a son of Sarah's had daughter Nancy),
Elizabeth who married a Puckett, and another son the name was not ledgible I
suppose. ...
Elizabeth Cauthorn was born in 1722 ((again, the date of Robt
Widdrington's MD will). She was the child of Abraham Womack, Sr. of LIncoln
Co., NC. I suppose Sarah Womack Rice was the daughter of William Womack of
Charlotte Co., VA. Hi Paul, I am not related to any of the ones listed in
the will but I wondered if you would mind if I forward it to Caswell Co.
list. It might be of help and I know some of the ones there are researching
the Rice family. Pat Nelson nels095(a)ibm.net"
===================
which reminded me of the Greatest Rev War/founding of this country
Caswell
W'ton story I know, which I have in other circumstances described as
the Story of the Theft of the Federal Convention Ballot Box, written by
William S. Powell.
[Incidently, the actual votes of the American/ NC citizens who voted
were
recorded (in a columnar format), (now at:
http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/nc/dobbs/misc/vote1788.txt)
and published, (at least for those who voted before the Theft),
perhaps a
first and, as far as I know, last recordation of a citizen's actual
federal
vote].
Unfortunately, I found no Rices involved, but in deference to the Rice
email
refd in the msg pointed out to me, see below, here 'tis FYI.
Hopefully, if a Rice researcher is involved somehow, someone on Rice-L will
know and advise us. The story is of LENOIR Co (then or now Dobbs? Co)
origin.
