The Terrell family traces back to North and South Carolina, then to Colonial Virginia, and back to England. Our early Terrell family was of Royal English descent, whose motto was "Sans Dieu Rien" which means "Without God Nothing".
There is an old family tale handed down for many generations in the various lines of the family. The family had immigrated from England. The tale tells how three Terrell Brothers were each passed down "Silver Buckles" from their father. One was a set of Knee Buckles, one Suspender Buckles, and the third set was Shoe Buckles.
Each of the three brothers were given a set of "Silver Buckles" with the understanding it was to be passes down to the oldest male of each succeeding generation. This was to be done "least our heritage be lost". Ruth Elizabeth Humphreys Lambert's version of the story was almost identical to that found in very distant lines of this family. The tale of the "Silver Buckles" was always a fascinating story. Validating the tale meant finding the descendants and present day owners, which seemed incredible and unlikely. It was in 1988, after nearly threee years of research, that two of the three sets of "Silver Buckles" were locaterd in the posesssion of present day descendants.
One of the three brothers was named James Terrell, and it is from him that Rugh Elizabeth Hmpphreys Lambert descends. The original "Silver Buckles" passed down from James Terrell are currently in a bank vault in Nocona, Texas. Engraved on the back ar the initials "J.T." and the date "1657". (It is said that this set was passed down from James, to Philemon Terrell Sr, to Philemon Terrell Jr, to Samuel Lafayette Terrell)
The second set of "Silver Buckles", owned by the Lake Eric Terrell family of South Carolina, are said to have been passed down from Richmond Terrell who immigrated to Virginia in 1656. The two sets of "Silver Buckles" are almost identical in size measuring 1.5 by almost 2 inches.
Although the size is similar; the appearance, claw mechanism, and tongue design differs between the two sets. Either of the two sets of "Silver Buckles" could be suspender, knee or shoe buckles. The hallmark and die punch marking on the backs of these two sets of 300+ year old "Silver Buckles" could, by silversmiths, be used to trace their origins. They likely date back to England rather than Colonial Virgijnia. The third set of "Silver Buckles" has yet to be located.
Served military NC during Revolutionary War.
Moved to Liberty County before 1800, and died there in 1816. His heirs, including his son, John, made a deed to their mother (Mrs. Elizabeth Terrell) 9 December 1816, for four tracts of land totalling 650 acres in Libery County owned by Philemon terrell at his death, (Deed Book "H",page 107, Liberty County)
He purchased 100 acres of land south of Cheek's Creek in Anson County, NC, which he sold in 1766
By 1778, Philemon Terrell Sr. had located to the area known today as Robeson County, NC. He obtained a land grant in 1779. He owned land north of Drowning Creek and on the south side of Ten Mile Swamp. He lived on the west side of Great Swamp, which today is east of the town of Lumberton, NC. The area is known as "Burnt Islands" in present day Wishart Township.
By 1800, he had relocated his family to Taylor's Creek in Liberty County, Georgia.
Philemon and his brother Richmond both served in the Revolutionary War in N.C. Philemon's Wilmington District payment voucher, #674 for Reavolutionary seravice pay roll #500, was dated 6 July 1782 for which he received 6 pounds and 15 Shillings. Voucher #3165 indicates he later received another 15 shillings for his service.
Philemon and his brother Richmond lived next door to each other in Robeson County, as noted on the First Census of the US taken in 1790. There was a Robert Terrell living close by, likely a relation, who had a grist mill. Philemon had received NC land grants in 1779, 1780, 1784, and 1791.
Both brothers raised their families there in NC and likely received some form of bounty land in Georgia for their Revolutionary War service. On 6 Oct 1795, Philemon sold all four surveys of his NC land.
By 1800 Philemon had relocated his family to Taylor's Creek in Liberty County, Georgia. Liberty County was known for its many residents bent on the cause of Liberty, hence its name. He and many of his older sons are noted as having served on juries in Liberty County. Records indicate Philemon died by early 1813, as the family sold all of his estate in 1816. The estate included a total of 600 acrs with 550 pines and 5 slaves.
He was likely laid to rest in Liberty County on land that is now part of Fort Stewart U.S. Air Force Base. No marked grave exists.
After the sale of his estate, Elizabeth and many of the children headed west with the Ratecliff family. Philemon Jr and his wife Margaret Ann Ratcliff also relocated. The families possibly stopped for a brief period in Pulaski County, Georgia.
