    Notes:

    1820 NC Census - no Alfred
    1820 TN census - no Alfred

    1824 - Father John Burt bequeathed abt 750 acres to him in Wake Co. - no land to the other sons...
    (Were John & Hardy already out of the state?)

    1850 - Alfred BURT, Wake Co., #190, Western (Jesse & Pascal B. also in that dist)

    Birth:
    actual day is an obscure reference of which I cannot find the,,, source

    Alfred married Elizabeth A. SIMONS [SIMMONS] on 26 Jun 1822 in Wake County, North Carolina. Elizabeth was born in 1807 in NC; died in 1887 in Wake County, North Carolina. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 5.  Elizabeth A. SIMONS [SIMMONS] was born in 1807 in NC; died in 1887 in Wake County, North Carolina.

    • FamilySearch ID: K63L-77H
    • _UID: E1A98188A3B24D1F84D1B58C0970EF2A7C9D

    Notes:

    Alfred apparently left her and children with plenty of property, all the kids have money in 1860.

    Census records of 1850 (as transcribed) show Eliz. is 38 yrs. old. She would have been born in 1812...which means at time of marriage in 1822 she was only 10. Clearly an error. The 1860 census reports age 53 - more reasonable birthdate of 1807, still only 15 when wed.

    Other deeds recorded involving his brothers and father in Chatham Co., NC

    Earliest deed referring to John Burt Jr. and Sr. is in 1771 - presumably that would make Jr. born abt. 1750 (to be 21 yrs. old).

    Wake County May Term 1824
    The [within?] last will and testament of John Burt Senr. was duly proven in open court by the oath of Young Burt Witness [unto?] and ordered to be recorded. B. [J.?] [?] C. C.

    Presumably, after the death of John BURT, then referred to as Sr., in 1780 - this John BURT, previously recorded on deeds as "Jr." then changed to "Sr.", probably when his own son John BURT was old enough to sign documents. (Son b. abt 1780 would be 21 in 1801)

    SARAH HUNTER wife of Washington Hunter, esq.; born Wake Co., N.C.; daughter of John Burt; married William Speight and moved to Dickson Co., Tenn.; he died and she married Hunter; She died May 16, 1846.

    John married Priscilla SENTER, Hardy about 1778 in Wake County, North Carolina. Priscilla (daughter of Stephen W. SENTOR and Susan Leigh STEPHENS) was born in 1760 in Wake, North Carolina, British Colony; died in 1820 in Fuquay-Varina, Wake County, North Carolina. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 9.  Priscilla SENTER, Hardy was born in 1760 in Wake, North Carolina, British Colony (daughter of Stephen W. SENTOR and Susan Leigh STEPHENS); died in 1820 in Fuquay-Varina, Wake County, North Carolina.

    • FamilySearch ID: KD1P-9YS
    • _UID: 94D3CEF751FF4983A4C55113B6C94C27075C

    Notes:

    There is no proof that Priscilla's last name is SENTER. There is a SENTER family in Wake Co. in the 1790 NC census.

    With a son named HARDY, I would more likely bet that Priscilla's maiden name might be that. Also, two grandsons used the name "William HARDY BURT"
