IVEY FAMILY RECORDS - DOBBS/WAYNE/LENOIR/DUPLIN/BLADEN COUNTIES

This information is from the research of Bob Baird . Please send him
an e-mail if you have questions, comments, or additional information
you would like to share.

Note : Johnston County was formed from Craven in 1746. Part of
Johnston became Dobbs County in 1759. Part of Dobbs became Lenoir and
Greene in 1779. Most records of these counties from 1746 through the late
1800s were destroyed in courthouse fires. The other part of Dobbs
became Wayne County, whose records are mostly complete from 1779.

1750 and 1751
No Iveys on quit rent lists for Johnston County.

10 Apr 1759 Dobbs County formed this date from eastern part of Johnston
County (the area covered by St. Patrick's Parish). Dobbs encompassed
the area of present Wayne, Lenoir, Greene, and southern Wilson
counties. Johnston County records remained in the Dobbs courthouse.
Later, Dobbs records were moved to the Lenoir courthouse. The great
majority of early records of Johnston, Dobbs and Lenoir were
destroyed in 1878 and 1880 courthouse fires.

However, grantee/grantor indices covering deeds recorded in the
1746-1878 timeframe are preserved. These contain the following entries.
Generally, only deeds recorded through about 1799 (When Lenoir was
formed) are shown here. Later Lenoir County deed indices are discussed
later in this document. The following deeds, except for the first
shown below, are therefore probably for land in Dobbs County.
Recording dates are estimated, but probably fairly accurate.

Thomas Ivey to John Williams Book 3, p338 (recorded 1754-55)
Adam Ivy to Adam Ivy1 Book 5, p566 (recorded 1757-58)
John Span to Robert Ivy Grantor Index Book 5, p 295
(recorded 1757-58)
John Spann to Robert Ivey Grantee Index Book 5, p 129 (recorded 1757-58)
[These last two entries are probably a single deed, entered differently in each index.]
Robert Ivey to John Spann Book 6, p 100 (recorded c1758-65)
John Span to Robert Ives Book 6, p 129 (recorded c1758-65)
Richard Sarsnet to Robert Ivey Book 9, p 289 (recorded 1771-73)
Robert Ivey to John Roach Book 10, p 408 (recorded c1774-75)
Griffin Jones to Robert Ivey Book 13, p 355 (recorded c1780-89)
Robert Ivey Sr. to Robert Ivey Jr. Book 17, p 3652 (recorded c1797-98)
Granville Grant to Adam Ivey Book 22, p 292 (rerecorded - this book is old grants and deeds from 1746 onward)
Francis Ivey to Adam Ivey Book 22, p 119 (ditto)

The two deeds from John Spann to Robert Ivey were preserved by the
family of one of his grandsons (See also Ivey Family Papers):

30 April 1759 John Spann to Robert Ive, both of Dobbs County, for 30
pds, 440 acres on north side of Nuse, south side of Great
Contentena, and on a branch of Nauhunty called Butten Branch...adjoining John
Simonses, survey of Robert Parks, and William Faircloth, being part of
a patent granted to Robert Parks on 2 September 1745. Witness: Wm.
Whitfield, Michael Herring. Recorded May Ct. 1759. Ivey Family
Papers, NC Archives, (PC 1828.1). [This apparently the deed from Book 5.
Not clear where this land is, but somewhere in northern Wayne County.
The Grantor Index contains a deed from Robert Park to John Spann
recorded ca1747-9.]

13 April 1762 John Span to Robert Ive, both of Dobbs County, for 5
pds, 50 acres on north side of Nuce and east side Boge Marsh, adjoining
William Wiggins, John Herring, and Standley, being land deeded from
Stephen Cade to John Span. Witness: John Weaver, Robert Simms.
Proved April Ct. 1762. Ivey Family Papers, NC Archives, (PC 1828.1).
[This deed apparently the one from Book 6. This was probably John Spann
Jr., husband of Sarah Smith and son of John Spann and Mary Norwood.]

26 Oct 1767 Patent to Robert Ivey, 310a Dobbs County, north side of
Neuse River in Bear Pocoson joining the lines of William Wiggins,
John Roach, and near Jonathon Stanley. "Colony of NC Abstracts of Land
Patents 1734-1764", Margaret M. Hofman, p 446. [This land located
near the parcel purchased in 1762.]

26 Oct 1767 Patent to Richard Sarsnett, 563 acres in Dobbs County on
north side of Neuse River in Sapone Neck, joining Robert Ivey, Robert
Argoe, near William Whitfield and the sd river. Patent Book 23,
p178. [Sapony Neck is between Bear Creek and Walnut Creek.]

4 May 1769 Patent #1505 to Jonathan Stanley, 600 acres in Dobbs
County on north side of Neuse River in the pococon between Bair Creek and
Bogue Marsh, joining near John Roach Sr., near Heritages line, Wm.
Whitfield, and near Robert Ivey. Patent Book 20, p421. [Bear Creek
was later the dividing line between Wayne and Lenoir Counties. Bogue
Marsh was just west of Bear Creek in present Wayne County, between it
and Walnut Creek.]

1769 Dobbs County tax list: Robert Eivy - 1 poll (male 21 or over)
[William Whitfield Sr. & Jr., Moses Stanley, Richard Sarsnet, John
Spann, et al, also on this tax list. Evidently no sons are yet 21.]

1770? Ivey Family Papers (PC 1828.1) has a single page, apparently a
ledger sheet, showing the account of John Ivey with Whitfield & Son,
with "1770" written on it. Apparently saved by family with deed
package. I probably misread "1790" as "1770".

9 Jan 1778 Patent by Robert Ivey for 150 acres in Dobbs County on
Turkey Branch in the fork of the South West Creek, beginning at the
mouth of Turkey Branch at Torran's beginning including all the vacant
land in or from that course, joining the lines of Stephen Hearon and
Lodowick Gray and his own lines. Dobbs County Patent Entry Book 4,
#935, p144. [This land located in present Lenoir County, southeast of
Kinston, south of the Neuse River About 15 miles southeast of the Bogue
Marsh land. Apparently not the same Turkey Branch as the one on
which Thomas Ivey bought in 1766. Lodowick Gray another Pasquotank name,
appears one name away from John Ivey in 1754 tax list.]

13 Jan 1778 Patent by Robert Ivey for 300 acres in Dobbs County on
the north side of the Neuse River and in Bogue Marsh and low grounds of
the river joining Moses Spann, Joseph Green, William Caswell, and
Moses Stanley. Dobbs County Patent Entry Book 1, #170, p170. [This
land located in extreme eastern part of what became Wayne County. Very
near, if not adjacent to, the land he already owned.]

1779 Wayne County formed from western half of Dobbs County.
Courthouse of Wayne was the old Dobbs courthouse, which fell into the new
county. Dobbs County courthouse relocated to Kinston in present Lenoir
County. [Robert Ivey's land fell into Wayne County, just west of the
Dobbs line. The land near Southwest Creek still in Dobbs.]

Robert Ivey on 1779 tax list of Dobbs County

22 Feb 1780 Solomon Roach of Duplin County to Sarsnet Roach of
Wayne County, 150 acres in Wayne County on the north side of the Neuse
River on the Great Branch, bounded by William Wiggins, Robert Ivey,
John Branch, John Roach, John Hanks, Sarsnet Roach, Jno. Nemhiz(?).
Line between John Branch and Robert Ivey (said Ivey's survey on Bear
Pecaron bearing date 26 October 1767.) Witness: John (X) Roach, Nancy
Whitfield, Bryan Whitfield. Wayne County DB 2, p62.

28 Mar 1780 James Forehand to his son William Forehand, 100 acres on
north side of Neuse River and east side of Walnut Creek, bounded by
Span, Robert Ivey, and Samuel Powers, being part of a tract granted to
Richard Sarsnet 27 October 1767. Witness: James Forehand Jr., Bryan
Whitfield, Nancy Whitfield. Wayne County DB 1, p23. [Page 28 has a
deed on same date to son James Forehand Jr. for adjoining 100 acres.
William Forehand sells this land to John Ivey in 1789.]

1780 Dobbs County tax list: No Ivey. There appear to be several
missing districts. Robert Ivey's land in Dobbs is now in Wayne County.
However, he apparently still owns 150a south of the Neuse, which may
have still been in Dobbs County.

16 May 1781 Quaker Meeting at Pasquotank County - entry this date on
report of marriage between Sarah (Ivy) and Josiah Stafford. Entry
dated 21 March 1781 "Sarah Ivey received by request". Entry dated 20
Jan 1779 "Josiah Stafford received by request". Encyclopedia of
American Quaker Genealogy, Vol. 1, William Wade Henshaw (Genealogical
Publishing Co., 1978), page 143. [Note this does not mean this is the
marriage date, nor that the marriage took place in Pasquotank.] Josiah
Stafford's Revolutionary pension file #39091 says he was born ca 1757
NC, enlisted from Dobbs County 1777, died 16 May 1835 Bedford
County, TN. Applied for pension in 1820 from Giles County, TN. His son
Ivey Stafford born 1788 according to descendants.

20 Oct 1781 Militia list of men over age 30 in Dobbs County. No
Iveys. Apparently all are in Wayne County by this time. Also, there are
no Iveys on Dobbs militia rolls taken between 1767-1781.

12 Jan 1782 NC grant to Robert Ivey, 100 acres on the east side of
Bare Marsh joining Whitfield, William Foreman and my own lines. Wayne
County entry #85.

12 Jan 1782 NC grant to Robert Ivey, 50 acres on the east side of
Bare Marsh joining Whitfield, John Spann, Rachel Herring, and John
Standley's lines. Wayne County entry #86.

14 Oct 1784 John Spann of Dobbs County to Robert Ivey of Wayne
County, for 10 pounds specie, 150 acres in Wayne County on the north side
of the Neuse River upon Bogue Marsh, adjoining John Herring, as by
patent granted to Richard Sarsnet 26 May 1757. Witness: Henry (X)
Nixon, William Whitfield, Bryan Whitfield. Wayne County DB 2, p77.

1784-89 Griffin Jones to Robert Ivey. Lost deed from Dobbs County,
recorded in Book 13, p 355 according to deed index. Recording date
probably 1784-9. [This might be a coincidence, but a Griffin Jones was
from Pasquotank County. He took the tax list in 1754 for the
district in which John Ivey appeared.]

21 Sep 1785 Moses Stanley of Wayne County to Robert Ivey of same,
for 10 pounds specie, 50 acres on north side of Neuse River and east
side of Bogue Marsh, granted to Stanley 10 Nov 1784. Adjoining Robert
Ivey's patent and Moses Stanley. Witness: Thomas Uzzell, John Burk,
Bryan Whitfield. Wayne County DB 3, p62. [This is apparently the
father of the Moses Stanley who married Sarah West, thus the father of
the brother-in-law of Robert Ivey Jr. The deed is clearly to Robert
Ivey Sr.]

28 Dec 1785 William O'Daniel of Duplin County to William Whitfield of
Wayne County, for 40 pounds, 200 acres on north side of North East
River, west side of Jumping Run. Witness: John Ivey, John Barfield,
Bryan Whitfield. Duplin County DB 1A, p412. [Barfield and the
Whitfields were adjoining landowners of Robert Ivey in Wayne County. John
Ivey may be occupying his father's land in Duplin, though it's
possible this is another John Ivey entirely.]

31 Dec 1785 George Smith Sr. of Duplin County to Robert Ivey of Wayne
County, for 60 pounds, 250 acres on Cow Hole Branch, head of a branch
of Burncoat Swamp. Witness: Josiah Stafford. Duplin County DB 1A,
p331.
[This land in northeast corner of Duplin about a mile or less from
the southeast Lenoir County line, northeast of present town of
Anderson. Robert Ivey may never have occupied this land. He sold it to
Josiah Stafford in 1789. George Smith later sold land in the same
vicinity to John Ivey.]

1784-6 State Census for Duplin County (no longer exists for Wayne or
Lenoir County) All located near one another in Hubbard's District:
Lewis Herring 0 1 1 [husband of Mary Ivey]
Daniel Hines 1 0 1 [husband of Chloe Ivey]
Josiah Stafford 1 0 4 [husband of Sarah Ivey]

23 Dec 1786 Tax list returned for Wayne County:
Robert Ivey 850 acres, 1 white poll, 2 black polls
John Ivey 0 acres, 1 white poll


25 Apr 1786 Three entries made for NC grants by Robert Ivey of 40,
50, and 30 acres. The acreage changed after surveys were made. All
three grants were issued and recorded on 11 July 1788. Recorded as
follows in Wayne County DB 4, p299-303:

Grant #291 issued for 44 acres on north side of Neuse River on the
Main Road adjoining Lewis Whitfield, Standley and Ivey's own line.
Grant #297 issued for 38 acres on the east side of the Bare Marsh and
on the west side of Cypress Swamp adjoining Whitfield, the widow
Henry, and Ivey's own line.
Grant # 302 issued for 19 acres adjoining Lewis Whitfield and
Forehand.
[The "Main Road", from other deeds and land descriptions, was the
road leading from the Dobbs courthouse to Thomas Uzzell's. This road
ran between Walnut Creek and Bear Creek as it went through the area
where Robert Ivey lived. Lewis Whitfield shortly thereafter entered a
claim that included the former land of John Herring and the plantation
where John Spann formerly lived. Also, Sarsnet Roach entered a claim
adjoining Robert Ivey. At this point Robert Ivey owns at least 1,341a
in the Bear Creek area and 150a in the Turkey Creek area.]

6 Oct 1787 James Forehand Sr. of Duplin County to Lewis Whitfield
of Wayne County, 69 acres north side of Neuse beginning at the south
side of the Great Swash near the place called the treading Ground,
adjoining Standley. Witness: William Standly, John Ivey, Ephraim
Cotton. Wayne County DB 4, p5.

10 Jan 1789 Robert (x) Ivey of Dobbs County, planter, to Josiah
Stafford of Duplin County, planter, for 50 pounds specie, 250 acres on
the east side of the North East River, both sides of Cow Hole
Branch...Burncoat Swamp...being part of 500 acres patented by George Smith
Sr. bearing date 3 July 1779...the said land being where the said
Stafford now lives. Witness: George Smith Sr., Richard Hart. Duplin
County DB E, p162.

19 Jan 1789 Robert (x) Ivey of Dobbs County to John Ivey of Wayne
County, 250 pounds current money, total of 747 acres. A tract of 728
contiguous acres lying on the north side of the Neuse River and east
side of Walnut Creek and Bogue Marsh...joining Bogue Marsh and
adjoining Moses Stanley, Wm. Wiggins, John Roach ("Roach's bounds of a part
sold him"), Forehand, Spann, the widow Henry, and Lewis
Whitfield...being granted in sundry tracts, to wit: parts of several patents: to
Wm. Stanley, to John Roach 28 September 1754, to William Wiggins 23
May 1757, to John Span, to Robert Ivey 25 October 1767, to Moses
Stanley 10 November 1784, and all of two grants to Robert Ivey 11 July
1788. Also a parcel of 19 acres near the same place in Sappony Neck
adjoining Lewis Whitfield and Forehand granted to Robert Ivey 11 July
1788. Witness: So. (Lo.?) Miller, Bryan Whitfield, Bryan Whitfield Jr.
Signed Robert (x) Ivey. Wayne County DB 4, p501.

[Not all of these purchases can be accounted for. Even after this
sale, it appears Robert Ivey still owned a significant amount of land
in the area, plus the 150 acres on Turkey Creek.]

Jan 1789 John Ivey on jury in Wayne County. Also October 1789 and
July 1792.

16 Dec 1789 William Forehand of Wayne County to John Ivey of same,
35 pounds specie, 100 acres on the north bank of Neuse River adjoining
Richard Sarsnet's patent line and Joseph Green, being part of a
patent granted to Richard Sarsnet and by him transferred to James Forehand
and from him to the said William Forehand. Witness: Nancy
Whitfield, Sarah Galloway, Bryan Whitfield. Wayne County DB 4, p499.

1788 voters list. No Iveys in various Dobbs militia lists 1767-1781.
No Iveys in 1784 and 1787 Duplin tax lists.]

20 Oct 1791 Deed proved: (unreadable) to Robert Ivey for 450 acres,
on oath of Josiah Stafford. [Deed not found in deed books]. Duplin
County Court Minutes.

21 Dec 179 1 Dobbs County abolished and split into Lenoir County
(southern half) and Glascow County (northern half). Glascow's name
changed to Greene in 1799. Bear Creek was just over the line in Lenoir
County, so some of Robert Ivey's land is now in Lenoir - apparently that
which he was living on.

21 Feb 1793 William Wooten and Stephen White to John Ivey, a negro
girl named Grace, aged 17. Witness: Shad. Wooten, John (x) Standley.
Ivey Family Papers (PC 1828.1).

9 Aug 1793 Marriage bond, Robert Ivey to Elizabeth West. Bondsmen:
Dan'l West, Joseph Loftin. Witness: Samuel Chapman, CC. Craven
County Marriage Bonds. [For many reasons, this is obviously Robert
Ivey's son Robert. John West, her father, lived in or near an area of
Craven that was added to Lenoir in 1819 (the Moseley Creek area).]

27 Dec 1793 William Forehand to John Ivey, both of Wayne County, for
75 pounds NC currency, 100 acres, part of a tract granted to Richard
Sarsnet 27 Oct 1767...adjoining Spann, Pattern, a pond below the
road, Robert Ivey, Samuel Powers. Witness: Moses Standley, John Green,
James Galloway. Ivey Family Papers (PC 1828.1). Recorded Book E,
p33.

14 Jan 1794 Moses Stanley patent for 150 acres lying in Bear Harbour
Broke Islands joining my own and John Ivey and John Hank's lines.
Wayne County entry #618. [This land located on east side of Walnut
Creek.]

10 Feb 1794 Bond for sale of land by Robert Argoe of Lenoir County to
John Ivey of Wayne County, no acreage specified. Ivey Family Papers
(PC 1828.1). [This land not described, but evidently on Panther
Creek. Probably included the mill on Panther Creek.]

8 Jul 1794 Robert (x) Ivey of Lenoir County to Lewis Whitfield of
Wayne County, for 100 lbs, 300 acres north side of Neuse and joining
Walnut Creek and Bogue Marsh...on the river bank beginning at Joseph
Green's & William Caswell's corner...mouth of Beaver Creek opposite to
the mill...down the meanders of Walnut Creek to the river...being
granted to Robert Ivey by patent bearing date 15 December 1778. Signed
Robert (x) Ivey. Wayne County DB 5E, p155. (Also found in
abbreviated form in "Wayne County Kinfolks")

6 Sep 1794 Robert (x) Ivey of Lenoir County to his loving daughter
Mary Herring of Duplin County, spinner, for natural love and
affection, a negro woman named Dorcas. Witness: Michael Herring, Stephen
Herring, Daniel Hines. Proved by oath of Lewis Herring. Duplin County
DB3A, p123. [Evidently wife of Lewis Herring, age 26-45 in 1800 census
of Duplin. In 1790 census of Duplin as 1 2 2 0 1. Lewis Herring born
c1765?]

26 Sep 1794 Robert (x) Ivey to his daughter Chloe Hines of Duplin
County, spinner, for natural love and affection, a negro girl named
Nance. Witness: Robert Ivey, Michael Herring, Stephen Herring. Proved
by oath of Daniel Hines. Duplin County DB3A, p125. [A family Bible
in the possession of Art Chambers of Liddell, Lenoir Co., NC records
the parents of Lewis Hines (born 22 May 1802) as "Dan" and "Cloey"
Hines. Daniel Hines, age 26-45 in 1800 census of Duplin. Listed
adjacent to Edward Outlaw.]

7 Aug 1795 John Ivey to Lewis Whitfield, both of Wayne County, for
10 lbs, 19 acres being a patent to Robert Ivey and transferred to
John Ivey. Witnesses: James Galloway, Jacob (x) Skipper. Wayne
County DB 5E, p247.

15 Jan 1796 Sarsnet Roach to John Ivey, both of Wayne County, for
£228-18-9, 203.5 acres on the east side of Walnut Creek joining the
lands of the sd John Ivey and the lands lately owned by John
Hanks...Wiggins patent...John Roaches patent line...Jona. Standley's patent
line... Witness: Moses Standley, Stephen Standley. Ivey Family Papers
(PC 1828.1) Recorded in Book E, p548.

20 July 1796 Mary Dobson and her daughter Rebeckah Dobson of Duplin
County to Jacob Meeks, 100 acres on north side Cow Hole
Branch...adjoining survey formerly Benjamin Adams now the property of
Ivey...Burncoat Swamp. Duplin County DB 3A, p381. [Reference to land Robert
Ivey purchased in 1785.]

c1797-8 Robert Ivey Sr. to Robert Ivey Jr. Lost Lenoir County
deed. Grantor Index shows this deed recorded in Deed Book 17, p 363
(recorded c1797-98). Deed lost in Lenoir courthouse fires of 1878 and
1880. Probably this is Robert Ivey Sr. selling his land in Lenoir
County.

28 Jan 1797 Indenture Joseph Green of Wayne County to John Ivey of
Wayne County, for 100# specie, 100 acres in Wayne County north side
of Neuse, ...on the river bank...James Forehand's line...as by patent
to Robert Argoe 14 March 1775 and by Argoe transferred to Green.
Witness: Stn. Jernigan, Alexand. Frazen, Jos. Green Jr. Ivey Family
Papers (PC 1828.1).

2 Nov 1797 William Ward of Bladen County to Robert Ivey of Lenoir
County, 130 pounds, 100 acres on both sides of Brown Marsh Swamp above
the main road...on Sarah Branch...run of the Swamp...adjoining John
Campbell...above William Ward's rice field. Witness: David Finlay,
Philip Ward, John Ward. Bladen County DB 7, p78.

28 Nov 1797 William Ward of Bladen County to Robert Ivey of Lenoir
County, 8lb - 15s current money, 50 acres on the west side of Brown
Marsh Swamp, it being part of 200 acres lying above Crawford's old
field the 50 acres being the lower end at Jones Crawford's line.
Witness: Philip Ward, John Ward. Bladen County DB 7, p77.

28 Nov 1797 Philip Ward of Bladen County to Robert Ivey of Lenoir
County, 15 pounds, 100 acres on the west side of the Brown Marsh Swamp
including an improvement that Robert Hatcher bought of Francis
Lawson. Witness: William Ward Sr., John Ward. Bladen County DB 7, p76.

9 Nov 1798 NC Grant #2398 entered by Robert Ivey, 100 acres on the
south side of Brown Marsh Swamp...beginning at a black jack in Robert
Ivey's line above his plantation...below Sarah's Branch...McKeithan's
line... Patent date 18 December 1800. Recorded in Bladen County DB
7, p409.

[These last four entries are certainly Robert Ivey Senior, still
alive in the late 1790s. Not clear why he would choose to move at his
advanced age, but apparently sons Turner and Charles are with him.
Brown Marsh Swamp is a creek in the south-central area of Bladen County
that eventually flows into Columbus County. This land is evidently
in the vicinity of Bladensboro. This is nowhere near the different
family of Iveys who were earlier in the part of Bladen that was by now
Robeson County.]

ca 1778-9 Robert Ivey to Jean Herring. Lost deed from Lenoir County
grantor/grantee index. Recorded Lenoir DB 18, p265. Recorded
1798-1799 from context.

ca 1778-9 Robert Ivey to Sarah Harper. Lost deed from Lenoir County
grantor/grantee index. Recorded Lenoir DB 18, p382. Recorded
1798-1799 from context.

[Could these be deeds of gift by Robert Ivey Sr. to additional
daughters? It is not clear if Robert Ivey Sr. still owns land in Lenoir at
this time, but these seem to coincide with the move to Bladen County.
Could Graddy Herring's wife be named Jean??? Robert Ivey is thought
to be the father of Sarah Ivey Stafford, so Sarah Harper is probably
not another daughter. There are four Harpers in Lenoir 1800 census.
A Sarah Harper is on the 1810 census of Lenoir County with several
children. A Sarah Harper just north, in Greene County, filed a
petition for dower in 1819 naming several grown children. Apparently the
widow of Blaney Harper.]

4 Jan 1799 Frances Lawson of Robeson County to Joseph Screws, 12
lbs, 40 acres lying between and joining Robert McEwen, Simm Bright,
Joseph Lasley. Witness: Charles Ivey, Turner Ivey. Bladen County DB 7,
p208. [This land evidently very near Robert Ivey.]

1 Jun 1799 John McKay to Robert Ivey, both of Bladen County, for 32
lbs 10s, 80 (50?) acres on the south side of the Brown Marsh Swamp
adjoining Daniel McKeithan's patent line. Witness: John Ward, Charles
Ivey. Bladen County DB 7, p211.

1 Jul 1799 George Smith Sr. of Duplin County to John Ivy of Dobbs
Co. for 15 pounds, land on the east side of Northeast River, called
Cowhole, part of a 500 acre patent to George Smith. (quoted from book
mentioned at 10 Sept 1937 - did not find this in deed index of any
county. Not clear whether this is "our" John.)

field that Levi and Joseph West is to have use of them on even years.
Lastly all the rest of my land I give to my son Joseph West agreeable
the law directs. Witness: Danl West, Robert Ivy. Craven County WB
A, p104.

[Witness apparently signed his name, so evidently was Robert Ivey Jr.
who had married Elizabeth West. Sara West had married Moses Stanley
Jr.(c1779-1812) by Craven bond dated 21 November 1799. Joseph West
had married Sarah Stanley (c1772-1856) and went to Baldwin County,
Georgia. It appears there were nine children altogether. John West
lived not far from the Iveys - see 1780 Dobbs tax list and deeds.]

ca1800 Michael Herring to Robert Ivey. Lost deed from Lenoir
County grantor/grantee index. Recorded Lenoir DB 19, p58. Recorded
1799-1801 from context. [This evidently Robert Ivey Jr.]

6 Nov 1804 Will of Jacob Skipper of Wayne County. Wife Barbary,
daughters Barbary and Hannah, and "all my children". Executors Barnaby
McKinnie and James Ivey. From Wayne County Kinfolks? [Who is James
Ivey? This is probably mistranscribed by the author and was meant to
be "John".]

19 Nov 1804 Charles Ivey to Josiah Stafford, both of Bladen County,
for $600, 348 acres on both sides of Brown Marsh Swamp above the main
road... There follows descriptions of five parcels adjoining one
another. These five parcels match the four parcels purchased or granted
to Robert Ivey a few years earlier. The Robert Ivey grant of 1800 is
now described as two parcels of 50a each. One description reads:
"...in Robert Ivey's line above his plantation...it being part of 100a
patented by Robert Ivey 22 May 1800." Witness: John Ward, Phillip
Ward. Bladen County Deed Book 27, p235.

[Robert Ivey Sr. is evidently dead by this date. Charles Ivey is
selling what appears to be all the land previously owned by Robert Ivey
Sr. There are no deeds in Bladen County to suggest how Charles
acquired this land. Unfortunately, all records of Bladen County other than
deeds and most wills were destroyed in courthouse fires. There are
no Ivey wills in this timeframe.]

C1805-10 John Ivey to "Robert Argoe and others". Lost Deed. Lenoir
County Grantor Index, Deed Book 23, page 80. Probably recorded ca
1806, as book has 485 pages. [Could this be John Ivey acting as
administrator or executor of Robert Ivey Sr. selling his remaining land in
Lenoir County?]

7 Jun 1809 Josiah Stafford to Turner Ivey, both of Bladen County,
$510, 340 acres in Bladen County...(comprised of several parcels -
descriptions are same as the land Robert Ivey purchased in three 1797
deeds and the 1 June 1799 deed. This is the same land bought of Charles
Ivey in 1804.) Witness: John Ward, Phillip Ward. Recorded twice:

Looks like he is in Robert Ivey Jr.'s household in 1810 census.]

Aug 1811 "...about the month of August in the year 1811 John Ivey
formerly of Wayne County died intestate.." according to a petition by
the heirs to divide his land. Heirs were identified as Robert Ivey,
Richard Ivey, Joshua and Sally Ivey by their guardian Graddy Herring,
Edy and Elizabeth Ivey by their guardian Robert Ivey Sr., and John
and Turner Ivey "infants by their mother and guardian Elizabeth Ivey".
(Loose paper recorded at October court 1812, in folder of John Ivey
estate papers filed at NC Archives as CR 103.508.xxx "I" box.)

19 Nov 1811 Inventory of estate of John Ivey presented by Graddy
Herring and Robert Ivey Sr., administrators of estate. Estate valued at
3,250 pounds. (Loose papers, see above.) [Robert Ivey Sr. was the
former Robert Ivey Jr. John Ivey's son Robert is henceforth Robert
Ivey Jr.]

12 Oct 1811 Will of Moses Stanley, Wayne County [this is Moses
Stanley Sr.?]: Sons Jesse, Moses, William and Major. Daughters Betsey,
Pipkin, Sally West, Charity West, Polly Bowden, Dorcas Herring.
Witness: Richard Ivey, Robert Ivey, Joshua Ivey.

15 Aug 1812 Richard Ivey and Robert Ivey Jr.; Joshua Ivey and Sally
Ivey by their guardian, Graddy Herring; Edy Ivey and Elizabeth Ivey
by their guardian Robert Ivey Sr.; John Ivey and Turner Ivey by their
guardian Robert Ivey Jr.; the children and heirs of John Ivey,
deceased, late of Wayne County, ...died intestate...assignment to Elizabeth
Ivey, the widow of the said John Ivey, for one-third of the land of
said John Ivey, deceased, that was laid off by commissioners to her
for her lifetime as her dower. Witness: John Elmore, James (x)
Skipper. Signed by: Robert Ivey, Richard Ivey, Robert Ivey gdn of Edy &
Elizabeth Ivey, Robert Ivey gdn of John & Turner Ivey, Graddy Herring
gdn of Joshua and Sally Ivey. Wayne County DB 9, p440.

Same date: In consideration of the above assignment, Elizabeth Ivey,
the widow of John Ivey, releases unto Robert, Richard, Sally, Joshua,
Edy, Elizabeth, John and Turner Ivey, the children and heirs of her
late husband, all her claim to his lands in both Wayne and Lenoir
Counties. Same witnesses. Signed Elizabeth (x) Ivey. Wayne County DB
9, p440.

[Elizabeth was evidently the mother of only the two youngest children
- John and Turner. The transcript of these deeds in the book "Wayne
County Kinfolks" uses the words "her children", but those words do
not actually appear anywhere in these two deeds. The deeds say "the
children of her late husband". She was probably the widow of Hezekiah
Miller, as John Ivey's estate paid the "guardians of the heirs of
Hezekiah Miller." Robert and Richard Ivey were of age since they signed
the assignment, but the other six children are under 21. Graddy
Herring was son of Michael Herring and Charity Graddy, and the brother of
Lewis Herring who married Mary Ivey. Graddy Herring is believed to
have married an Ivey, another daughter of Robert Ivey. Perhaps the
"Jean Herring"? The child Sallie Ivey later married Benajah Herring,
Edith Ivey married Dr. Gregory Thomas, and Richard Ivey married Alice
West.]

[Later guardianship records indicate the Richard Ivey took over as
guardian of Turner Ivey by 1818 and served through 1831. He paid
Turner's boarding bills to Elizabeth Skipper, indicating that the two
infants may have continued to live with their mother. Major Stanley took
over as guardian of John Ivey in 1821, then Benajah Herring became
his guardian in 1826 and served through 1829.]

C1812 Undated document in the Ivey Family Papers (PC 1828.1) is the
division of the 150 acre "home tract" of John Ivey into seven lots.
There may be a page missing, as there were evidently eight children
plus the widow.

7 Dec 1812 Partition of the land of John Ivey. 1297 acres in Wayne
County and 872 acres in Lenoir County were apportioned among the
eight children. Little genealogical interest to this.

6 Jan 1813 Elizabeth Ivey of Wayne County, deed of gift to her son
James Miller, and to her daughters Penny Miller and Purcey Miller.
Each child given a slave (named David, Robert, and Lewis respectively)
and "one feather bed and furniture". Note at end of deed reads "I
shall keep the negroes until my children, son and daughters, comes of
age and then they may have them." Signed Elizabeth (x) Ivey.
Witness: Cholly (?) Totevine, Percy Edmundson. This deed of gift is
recorded twice, in Wayne County DB 10, p97 and again in DB 12, p315.

[This is evidently the widow of John Ivey, who also signed with her
mark. She was apparently the widow of Hezekiah Miller, whose heirs
were paid out of John Ivey's estate, though possibly the widow of James
Miller. She must have married John Ivey shortly before his death.]

6 Aug 1814 Final settlement of estate of John Ivey in Wayne County
by administrators Graddy Herring and Robert Ivey.

12 Sep 1814 Isiah (sic) Stafford of Bladen County to Robert Ivey,
planter, of Lenoir County, for $350, 100 acres on northeast side of
Thos. Bryans Bay including John Simmons improvement...also 75 acres from
Saml Elkins to me. Witness: J. Lesley, Lucy Stafford. Bladen County
DB 7, p544. [This land evidently formerly owned by Robert Ivey Sr.,
as no such purchase to any Stafford is recorded. The grantor signed
with a mark, as Josiah Stafford did. Probably the clerk erred in
copying the deed. Who is Lucy Stafford? An unmarried daughter?]

13 Sep 1814 Robert Ivey of Lenoir County to Turner Ivey of Bladen
County, for $400, 100 acres in Bladen County on the north side of Thomas
Bryan's Bay, including John Simpson's (sic) improvements...also 75
acres adjoining the above... (same land as bought the day before).
Witness: Aaron Lewis, John Ward. Signed by Robert Ivey. Bladen County
DB 30, p508. (Not recorded until Aug 1832.) [Grantor signed his
name, thus Robert Ivey Jr.]

ca1815-7 Robert Ivey to William Gray (Lenoir Deed Book 24, p209) and
Robert Ivey to James Carter (Lenoir Deed Book 24, p352). Lost deeds
from Lenoir grantor index. Recorded between Aug 1810 and Aug 1819.
Probably around 1815-7, as Book 24 had 501 pages.

[There are no more Ivey deeds in Lenoir County until about 1870.
Robert Ivey is apparently selling his land preparatory to moving to
Georgia.]

ca 1817 Robert Ivey in Georgia by this time. "History of Baldwin
County" (p 100) lists members of Camp Creek Baptist Church ca1817 -
including Robert Ivey, Elizabeth Ivey, Furna Ivey, James Ivey.

Robert Ivey filed his last accounting as the guardian of his niece
Elizabeth Ivey in February 1817. The May court appointed a committee
to settle the account of Elizabeth Ivey by her former guardian Robert
Ivey with Graddy Herring, her current guardian. Graddy Herring's
guardian bond was dated 20 May 1817. The settlement between Robert Ivey
and Graddy Herring is dated 13 August 1817. (Wayne County loose
estate papers, NC Archives)

17 Aug 1819 Sheriff of Wayne County grant to Robert Ivey, for $25,
James Skipper's interest in the land allotted to his wife, Elizabeth
Skipper, the late widow of John Ivey, deceased, as her dower in the
lands of said Ivey. Sheriff directed to seize the property of James
Skipper, Barnaby McKinne (in the hands of his executor) and Robert Ivey
to pay a debt. James Skipper had a lifetime interest in the land by
his marriage to Elizabeth Ivey. Sheriff sold the lifetime interest
in the land at auction November 1818. Robert Ivey the high bidder at
$25. Sheriff now makes a grant of interest in the land during
Elizabeth Skipper's life to Robert Ivey. Witness: Robert Ivey, Isham
Cotton. Wayne County DB 11, p221. [This is the son of John Ivey. His
uncle Robert Ivey is in Georgia by now.]

8 Oct 1819 Deed of gift of "furniture" from Henry Skipper to his
cousins Elizabeth Skipper and Kelsy Skipper, both daughters of James
Skipper and Elizabeth Skipper, his wife. Witness: Major Stanley. James
Skipper. Wayne County DB 11, p219. [Elizabeth evidently had children
by Miller, Ivey and Skipper - cementing the idea she was a relatively
young widow when she married John Ivey.]

30 Sep 1820 Robert Ivey and Joshua Ivey of Wayne County to Jesse Wood
of Greene County, for $3,024 (?), 312 acres in Wayne County. [Not
clear what land this is.] Witness: Ichabod Herring, Joshua Rouse.
Wayne County DB 12, p202.

10 Aug 1824 Furney Ivey and wife Elizabeth Ivey, formerly Elizabeth
Miller, both of Baldwin County, Georgia, to Henry Parks of Wayne
County, NC, for $850, a tract of 219 acres in Wayne County adjoining
Moses Stanley and Jesse Wood, part of the real estate formerly owned by
John Ivey, deceased, late of Wayne County. Signed Furno Ivey, Betsey
Ivey. Witness: D. Justice, W. S. Jenkins. [Justice and Jenkins
were JPs in Baldwin County.] Elizabeth Ivey releases dower rights in
land, same date and witnesses. Wayne County DB 15, p133. [Furna is
son of Robert Ivey Jr. There seems to be no record of his acquiring
this land. None of the heirs of John Ivey were awarded a tract near
this size except for Elizabeth. Elizabeth Ivey signed release of dower,
implying they were married when he acquired the land - or that it was
her interest in the land that they were selling. It is possible she
was John Ivey's daughter Elizabeth, perhaps the young widow of a
Miller - meaning Furney married his first cousin.]

10 Aug 1825 Jesse Wood to Richard Ivey, both of Wayne County, for
$1200, 162 acres adjoining John Ivey, Turner Ivey, the dowry line,
line of Richard Ivey, the road leading to White Hall north side of Neuse
and Roaches Branch. Ivey Family Papers (PC 1828.1)

12 Feb 1829 James Bryan Sr. to Turner Ivey, both of Bladen County,
$100, 200 acres south side of Bryans Swamp on both sides of the main
road leading from Elizabeth town to Ivey's Bluff...adjacent Thomas
Bryan. Witness: Edward Lewis, D, Lewis Jr. Bladen County DB 10, p47.

1830 census Bladen County:
Elizabeth Ivey (blank)
Turner Ivey 00011001 - 0100001 - 0 [Sons John & Charles &
daughter Elizabeth]

[Turner Ivey's wife was named Alice according to descendants. Alice
was aged 70 in 1850 census, had a daughter named Elizabeth and sons
John & Charles. The Pate family association says Turner Ivey's
daughter Elizabeth married Hilary Pate in Bladen County about 1840 or 1841.
See 1839 entry. A daughter of Hillary Pate and Elizabeth Ivey,
Elizabeth Pate, married Monroe Singletary and evidently took care of her
Ivey grandmother and uncles. Beyond some real estate transactions
among them. she inherited land on the present site of Bladensoro from
these Iveys. Apparently neither Charles nor John married. Both left
their lands in Bladensboro to Elizabeth Singletary, who gave some of
it to the First Baptist Church of Bladensoro.]

10 Dec 1830 In a Court of Equity held at Court House in Kinston,
Lenoir County, 3d Monday after the fourth Monday of March
last--ordered, adjudged and decreed by said Court in a certain cause there
depending between Daniel Miller, Nancy Miller, an infant under the age of 21
years by her guardian Furnifold Ivey, John Koonce an infant under the
age of 21 years by his guardian Emanuel Jarman and Imla N. Miller,
Petitioners and Michael Pickle and wife Mary, Benjamin Fordham and wife
Alice, Willie Miller, John Miller and Lewis Miller, Defendants, that
the several Tracts and parcels of Land mentioned and set forth in the
petition of the Petitioners (among which is the tract or parcel
hereinafter particularly described) be sold by the Clerk and Master of
said Court at public auction, the said Master first giving forty days
notice of the last sell at Courthouse in Kinston for $9.50. Tract
situate in Jones Co. On Trent River in Blackshear's line, 14 acres, being
the tract of last conveyed to Phillip Miller by George Koonce by deed
bearing date 18th day of February 1796. [Miss Mamie Kinsey
Collection, N.C. Archives.] [Philip Miller in 1800-1820 censuses of Lenoir
County. Furney's wife evidently the widow of a son of Phillip Miller.]

Similar document recorded same date in Jones County Deed Book 18,
p272. Recorded there because the land was on the Trent River in Jones
County (formerly Craven). Willie Miller's name given here as William
Miller. Furnifold Ivey's name given as Farnifold Ivey.

2 Feb 1832 Will of Richard Ivey of Wayne County. Wife Alice Ivey
(given as "Ailsey" in one place, "Alice" in two others) all estate on
the condition she "liberally educate, support and comfortably clothe
all my children...until each of them arrive at the age of twenty one
years of age or marries." Executors: wife Alice Ivey, Alexander
Mosely. Proved Feb Ct. 1832. Witness: Benjamin Herring, Graddy
Herring, Jesse Stanley. Ivey Family Papers (PC 1828.1). [Alice was ne
West, age 54 in 1850 census.]

8 Jun 1832 John Ivey of Wayne County to Henry Parks of same, $950,
317 acres north side of Neuse River "being known as lot no. 3 which I
drew in the division of the land of my father John Ivey"...Wiggins
line now Turner Ivey...Richard Ivey line...Stanley's line now A. F.
Moses...Stanley's line. Wit: Alice Mosely, Jesse (x) Fields. Wayne
County DB 15, p405.

18 Sep 1833 Turner Ivey of Haywood County, Tennessee to Allice (sic)
Ivey of Wayne County, $600, 288 acres north side of Neuse and east
side of Bogue Marsh "which tract of land was awarded me by the
committee in the division of my fathers land...between the lots that were
laid off and drawn by Richard Ivey and Joshua Ivey." Witness: John H.
Cotton, Isham Cotton. Wayne County DB 16, p60. [Alice Ivey is the
widow of Richard Ivey. The committee that divided John Ivey's land
awarded 281 acres in Wayne County to Turner Ivey. Turner had apparently
turned 21 about this time, as there are guardian's accounts for him
through January 1833.]

[Turner Ivey, son of John Ivey, is in the Haywood County, TN 1840
census,# 395: 1m/0-5, 1m/10-15,1m/20-30, 1f/0-5, 1f/20-30. Apparently
the same person as in 1850 Yell Co., Arkansas age 39 born NC with
wife Mary and children Sarah, John, Robert, Elizabeth, and Hillary.
There is also a John Ivey in Haywood county who appears to be his
brother. Alice Ivey was the widow of Richard Ivey. She later had this
land seized by the sheriff to pay a debt to Aaron F. Moses of $941. She
paid him and got the land back in 1837. In 1844 she made deeds of
gift to Robert and John Ivey of land in Wayne County.]

19 Feb 1835 "lands of Turner Ivey" on Thomas Bryan's Swamp in
Bladen County referenced in deed. Bladen County DB 10, p360.

14 Dec 1839 Elizabeth Ivey to Charles Ivey and John Ivey, all of
Bladen County, "my part of all the land my father Turner Ivey was in
possession of at the time of his death..." There follows descriptions
of five parcels on Thomas Bryans Swamp. Witness" William Ward, C.
Monroe. Bladen County Deed Book 14, p473.

[This refers to Turner Ivey, son of Robert Ivey Sr. Elizabeth is
apparently the only daughter. Alice Ivey, widow of Turner Ivey is in the
1840 Bladen census with one female 20-25, one male 30-40, and one
male 40-50. Charles and John are in 1850 census of Bladen, aged 48 and
50 respectively. Alice is aged 70.]

10 Sep1937 Mrs. Alice Simpkins, a granddaughter of John Ivey wrote a
letter this date, summarized in "Colonists of Carolina in the Lineage
of W. D. Humphrey" (Blanche Humphrey Abee, Byrd Press, 1938). She
states John Ivey's wife was "Miss Moseley", and that his father was
Robert Ivey. This book goes on to describe the John Ivey homestead,
then occupied by her Mrs. Simpkins' sister Mattie Ivey West. "The
oldest members of the family now living say that this house was built in
1802. The brick were brought from England and the nails were hand
made. It was a well built home for that period and has the old-time
large fire place, in which wood, cord length, can be placed... The Ivey
Family reunion is held each year at the old homestead on the second
Sunday in July. Dr. Henry B. Ivey is president of the Ivey Family
Association." (This quoted from the Goldsboro, NC News-Argus, July 10,
1934.)

25 Jan 1843 Power of Attorney: Nimrod W. Long, Barna Ivey, and
Malachi W. Davis, all of Russell County, Alabama appoint Windal Davis of
Lenoir County [to receive monies] which might be due us from the
estate of Rachael Davis and James Davis, both of Duplin County. Duplin
County DB 16, p65.

[Barna Ivey (son of Robert Ivey Jr.) married Alcey Ann Davis. Her
parents were Malachi Davis and Mary Wooten. Mary Wooten Davis
apparently lived with the Iveys in Russell and Barbour County. Her
gravestone in the Ivey Cemetery in Barbour County gives her birth date as 22
January 1777 and birthplace as Lenoir County, and date of death as 27
August 1854. Malachi Davis apparently died in Lenoir in 1806.]

apparent that the family chart looks something like this:
