According to the History of Brooks Co., GA, (1948), JOSEPH BRICE & wife MARTHA FOLSOM emigrated from PA to Duplin Co., NC, & were natives of England.

m#STEPHENSSTEPHENSm#WATERSWATERS posted by Roy Dickerson on Friday, April 23, 1999

My compliments to you for such a good, informative internet site. I found the census data by Fred M. Hintz particularly useful.

I hope you can help me further or direct me to someone who might. I am trying to track my ancestors, but have reached a roadblock that I am haveing a very hard time breaking through.

I am a descendant of John H. WATERS who, with his wife Sarah, farmed and raised a family of 11 in Pike County Alabama beginning in 1837. Mr. Waters' roots were in North Carolina. So were his wife's.

Some sources indicate Mr. WATERS was born somewhere in the state on February 5, 1814. His father, James WATERS, was born in NC in 1787.

I have reasons to believe that the James WATERS listed in the 1820 Onslow County census is the father of John H. WATERS. But I don't have any proof. I believe that the father of James WATERS is the John WATERS listed in the 1790 Duplin County census, but again I have no proof.

I believe the 1814 marriage occurred either in Duplin or Onslow County. His wife's maiden name was Sarah Jane STEPHENS.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

a#DAVIDDAVIDa#HENRYHENRYa#LAMBLAMBm#STACKLYSTACKLYm#UNDERWOODUNDERWOOD posted by Arnold Cooper Lamb on Friday, April 23, 1999: I have researched my genealogy as far back as William LAMB (born: approx. 1752, married: 2/15/1777, died: 1807 in New Hanover County, NC) he married Abigail DAVID. William and Abigail had several children one of which was John Deloit LAMB (died: 1844 in Sampson County, NC). John Deloit LAMB married Elizabeth HENRY and they had several children one of which was James Henry LAMB (born: 12-18-1808 in New Hanover County, NC, died: 11-19-1889 in Sampson County, NC, married to Nancy Clark UNDERWOOD, both James and Nancy are buried in the Lamb Cemetery on Colin Lamb's estate, located on RT. 1 Garland, NC).I am interested in finding information on William LAMB's ancestors and filling in the gaps for his descendents.I found a reference to Peter LAMB on a New Hanover County deed, dated 1-28-1744 for 130 acres of land at Long Creek. Peter's property was deeded by Thomas LAMB (probably his eldest son) on 2-15-1775 in equal lots to Gibbs LAMB, Robert LAMB, William LAMB and John STACKLY (probably son in law of Peter). I think Peter was William's father or possibly Thomas's father, and maybe Thomas was William's father.The earliest record I can find of a LAMB in New Hanover County was a land grant from King George II to Captain John LAMB in 1736 (June 16) for 350 acres on the east side of Black River, which runs from the present day Sampson County (once New Haven) almost all the way to Wilmington.I would appreciate any information that anyone can provide me
