  • Notes 
    • Joseph stated to be "of Cumberland Co," in a deed dated 1786.

      1790 NC Cumberland cty, Fayette dis pg 38a start
      1st # free white males 16 year upwards and head of families
      2nd # free white males under 16 years
      3rd # free white females and head of families
      4th # all other free persons
      5th # slaves
      1790 Census, Cumberland Co., NC
      BURT, Joseph 1-0-1-0-3
      Apparently no children yet born.

      Joseph's father John deeded 250 acres on Buck Horn Creek to him in Aug 1780. Most probably over 21 yrs. of age at this time, born before 1759. Getting married in 1790 to Mary HOLT - puts him at least in his early 30's....seems late for marriage. But census does not indicate that he had older children. OR this is not the same Joseph BURT.

      Joseph was living in Cumberland Co. by 1786 and sold 210 A. of the above land (adjoining his brother Richard) ,
