Land and Court Records
All of the following report was researched,
written, and sent to me by Lou Poole who
has graciously shared his work with us. It was an enormous task to
collect all of these records.
The following records
document Edmund Lilly’s
arrival and presence in Anson County. In the beginning of this,
the identity of the individuals is clear.
By the time that sons and grandsons, all with the same
names, are
show up in the records, we can't always be sure of who is who.
“15 Jan 1753, Benjamin Dumas of Anson Co., to David Dumas, for
s5 and fatherly love to his child ... 353 Acres on N side Great Pee
Dee, adj. Widow Harrington’s line ... Benjamin Dumas (seal), Wit:
Edmond Lilly, Jeremiah Dumas, Thomas George, Benj. Dumas.”(16)
[Note: Benjamin Dumas was the father of Sarah Dumas who married Edmund
Lilly. David, Jeremiah, and
Benjamin (Jr.) are brothers-in-law of Reverend Edmund Lilly, i.e., sons
of Benjamin Dumas Sr. (16)
“15
Jan 1753, Benjamin Dumas of
Anson Co., to Edmond Lilly and Sarah for s5
and fatherly love to his child ... 350 A on N side Great Pee
Dee, beg.
at corner in Buffelow Island, S side of Ye Throwfare in Buffelow Island
... Benj. Dumas (seal), Wit: Thomas George, Jeremiah Dumas, David
Dumas, Benj. Dumas”(17)
On the same day, Edmund Lilly and his father-in-law, Benjamin Dumas
were granted three tracts of land:
“Benjamin
Dumas. 10 April 1753 400 acres in Anson County on the N. E. bank of
Peedee at the Mouth of a Small branch, joining the sd.
Peedee.”(18)
“Edmond Lilly 10 April 1753 236
acres in Anson County on the N. E. bank of Bufflow Island, joining land
that formerly belonged to John Clark and the N. branch of
Peedee.”(19)
“Benjamin Dumas 10 April 1753
360 acres in Anson County on the bank of a creek that runs into little
river of Peedee on the West side.”(20)
The deeds above and below place Edmund Lilly in the very southern-most
part of what is now Stanly County, NC. What is referred to below as
Buffalo Island is probably now called Buzzard Island, and is an island
in the Rocky River just before it empties into the Pee Dee River.
“15
Sep 1753, John Stone of Anson Co., to Jacob Richard of same, for
£12 Va. money ... land on N side Great Pee Dee, lower south of
mouth of Huwarry River, 300 A granted to John Stone ... John Stone
(mark) (seal), Wit: Edmond Lilly, David Dumas, William
Crittend.”(21)
“16 Jul 1754, Henry Walker of
Anson Co., to James Adams for ten pistoles ... land on S side Pee Dee,
be-low the mouth of Rockey River, 135 A ... Henry Walker (seal), Wit:
Edmond Lilly, Jeremiah Dumas, Jo-seph Culpepper.”(22)
The following deed is an
important one in our history of the Lilly family, because John Lilly to
whom Edmund Lilly sold the following land at a very nominal, or token
price is almost certainly the brother of Edmund Lilly – he was
the John Lilly who died and left a will in Albemarle County, Virginia
in 1759. See John Lilly. The William
Lilly who witnessed this deed is certainly the William Lilly,
brother of John Lilly. See William Lilly.
“16
Oct 1754, Edmond Lilly of Anson Co. to John Lilley of Albemarle Co.,
Va., for s5 Va. money ... land on N side Pee Dee, upper end of Buffelow
Island, 197 A., granted to Edmond Lilley 1753 ... Edmond Lilly (seal),
Wit: Wm. Lilly, William Queen.”(23)
“17
Dec 1754, Thomas Harrington of
Anson Co., planter, to Benj. Dumas of same, for £150 Va. money
... 270
A, N side Great Pee Dee ... line of John Cheek ... 100 taken up by John
Giles and the other by Thomas Harrington by patent 1754 ... Thomas
Harrenton (T) (seal), Wit: Edmond Lilly, John Culpepper, Sarah
Lilley.”(24)
“24 Oct 1755,
Walter Gibson of
Anson
Co., to William Culpepper of same, for £15 Va. money ... 100 A on
N
side Rockey River against land of sd. Gibson, at mouth of Spring Branch
... Walter Gibson (seal), Wit: Edmond Lilly, Jeremiah Dumas, John
Culpepper.”(25)
“14 Apr 1755,
Thomas Williams of
Anson
Co., to John Thompson of same, for £30 Va. money ... 200 A on N
side
Pee Dee above mouth of Clarks Creek ... granted to sd. Williams 23 Feb
1754 ... Thomas Williams (seal), Wit: Edmond Lilly, Benjn. Vines, Sarah
Lilly.”(26)
“20 January
1756, Benjamin
Dumas,
planter, of Anson Co., to Edmund & Sarah Lilly of same, for
£100
proc. money ... 400 A on S side Pee Dee on N side Rockey River, opp. to
Andrew Moorman’s land, granted to John Clark 13 Apr 1749,
sold to sd.
Dumas 10 July 1750 ... Benj. Dumas (seal), Wit: Jeremiah Dumas,
Zechariah Smith, Jno. Collson, 7 Jul 1756.”(27)
“22 Apr 1756,
Benjamin Dumas of
Anson
Co., to John Collson of same, for £50 ... on S side Great Pee
Dee, adj.
John Hall, granted 27 Feb 1756 ... Benjamin Dumas (seal), Martha Dumasa
(X) (seal), Wit: Jeremiah Dumas, Zechariah Smith, Edmund
Lilly.”(28) [Note: Martha was the second wife of Benjamin.
See Dumas
Family.]
“26 Apr 1756,
Edmund Lilly to
Benjamin
Dumas, for £100 proc. money ... 390 A on N side great Pee Dee,
adj.
John Lilly’s corner, including Buffaloe Island ... granted to
Edmund
Lilly 1753 ... Edmund Lilly
(seal), Sarah Lilly (seal), Wit: Jeremiah
Dumas, Zechariah Smith, Betty Prestwood.”(29)
“25 Jan 1758,
William Harrington
to
Thomas Davis, for £20 proc. money ... 200 A on Clarks Creek,
grant-ed
to sd. Harrington 17 Sep 1756 ... William Harrington (+) (seal), Wit:
Edmund Lilly, Joshua Weaver.”(30)
The following record is also
notable, because it represents John Lilly’s selling of the same
land he
bought from Edmund Lilly in 1753. [Note: The 97 acres listed here must
be a
mistake, because it was described as being 197 acres in 1753. Remember
that the courthouse burned and the deeds were recopied.] John
Lilly’s Albemarle County, Virginia will is dated 5 November 1759,
almost exactly one year after the following transaction. This probably
explains why no records are found for John Lilly prior to his will in
Albemarle County, Virginia; he was a resident of Anson County, North
Carolina almost until the date of his death.
“24
Nov 1758, John Lyly of Anson
Co.,
to Benjam. Dumas of same, for £100 proc. money ... land on N side
Great
Pee Dee, upper end of Buffelow Island, 97 A ... conveyed from Edmond
Lilly to John Lilly 16 Oct 1753 ... John Lilly (seal), Wit:

“14

Lilly, Thomas Davis, ___ Jacob ____.”(33)
“1 May 1761.
Jacob Richards.

“5 Mar 1762,

Clark’s Creek, N side Pee Dee, granted to sd. Davis by deed from
William Harrington 27 Sep 1756, 200 A ... Thomas Davis (T) (seal), Wit:

“20 Sep 1764,

side Pee Dee, at mouth of Davids Cr., adj. McCullohs line, 140 A ...
David Evans (D) (seal), Wit: Tiery Robinson, Edmd Lilly, Joseph Murphey
(I). Recorded according to law. Saml Spencer, C. C.”(36)
This following deed is important because Sarah Lilly signed this.
“19
Jan 1765, John Vanhose, Sen. of Anson, to John Hagler, of same, for
£20 proc. money ... 150 A on SW side Pee Dee, adj. Joshua Weaver,
John Hall ... granted to John Davis 25 May 1757 & conveyed to
Vanhose 14 Apr 1760 ... John Vanhoser (seal), Wit: Edmund Lilly, Sarah Lilly,

“20 Jan 1766, David Dumas of Anson, planter,

Dumas (seal), Sarah Dumas (X) (seal), Wit: Francis Smith, Richard Dixon
(X). Proven July Ct., 1766.”(38)
“25 Oct 1766, John Gibson, planter, & wf
Anna, to John Ryle,
planter, for £40 ... land on S side Rocky River, S side Pee Dee,
opp. Edmund Lillys plantation, granted 2 Nov 1764, 140 A ... John
Gibson (seal), Anna Gibson (X) (seal), Wit: Jno. Pickett, Shadrack
Hogan. Proven Oct. Ct. 1766, Saml. Spencer, C.C.C.”(39)
“16 Mar 1767 Timothy Taylor (Anson Co) to John
Hagle (same); for
£20 sold 100 ac on S side of Pee Dee R; border: begins at a
hickory near mouth of a gut that empties into the river; part of 200 ac
granted 3 Feb 1754 by the King to Joshua Weaver who sold 20 Oct 1758 to
Timothy Taylor. (signed) Timothy Taylor’s mark ‘T’;
witness Edmond Lilly, John Jacob ‘Donharbru’, &
Nathaniel Lilly; wit. oath Apr 1767 by [omit-ted]; reg. 8 Jul
1787.”(40)
In North Carolina, as well as in
Virginia, a young lad of only 16 could legally witness a deed. Who is
the above Nathaniel Lilly? Insofar as we knew prior to this time Edmund
did not have a son or a brother named Nathaniel. The above record,
with a
number of others provided herein, convince me that Nathaniel Lilly was
almost certainly another son of Edmund Lilly who has been heretofore
unrecognized.

The following deed appears to be
a very important one. The following 300 acre tract appears to have been
divided into two equal pieces, each 150 acres. Half of the following
land was given by Edmund Lilly Sr. to his son Edmund Jr. in the 14
March 1785 deed transcribed and provided below. The other half appears
to be the land that Nathaniel Lilly (Jr.?) sold to Edmund Lilly Jr. in
the 4 January 1803 deed provided in the next section. If I have
interpreted these three records correctly, then I think the equal
division with each part going to Edmund Lilly Jr. and Nathaniel Lilly
is further compelling evidence that Edmund Jr. and Nathaniel were
brothers, and sons of Reverend Edmund Lilly.
“30 Sep 1775 David Dumas, planter (Anson Co)

In 1778 the North Carolina Assembly passed an act for the creation of
Montgomery County from Anson County. The act specifically directed:
“An Act for dividing the County of Anson into two Distinct
Counties and other purposes therein mentioned
“…VII. And be it further Enacted by the
Authority aforesaid, That West Harris, James Allen, Edmund Lilly and
James Roper Walton, or a majority of them be, and they are hereby
impowered and directed to agree and contract for at least fifty Acres
of Land, and also to agree and contract with Workmen for building a
Court House, Prison and Stocks for the use of the said County of
Montgomery thereon, at such place as they, or a Majority of them or
their Survivors shall agree upon, and for re-imbursing the said
Commissioners the Money they shall expend in erecting the said
Buildings and running the dividing Line between the said

“23 Dec 1778 Mark Allen

Allen , Edmund Lilly, and John Christian (and
others) discussed at length below.]

in Anson County. Was this a re-entry of the same land, just in
Montgomery County? Montgomery County was created in 1779 from Anson
County.]

witness Jno Lilly, Edmund Hoggan, & James Ryle; wit. oath Apr 1785

The following deed is especially remarkable because it constitutes the
only real proof of any of the sons of Reverend Edmund Lilly. (And the
reader should notice: 1) that a David Lilly signed as a witness, who
probably is another son of Edmund Lilly, Sr., 2) the first tract
is described as being near the land of a “Widow Lilly,” who
is most likely the widow of a Nathaniel Lilly.)
“This

Note: It was about this time that Edmund Lilly, Jr., son of
Reverend Edmund Lilly, should have emerged into the records (he was
born in 1761). Therefore in the listing of records that name Edmund
Lilly below it is possible that some of the following records named him
versus his father. It is impossible to determine if the record does not
refer to Edmund as “Rev.” or “Jr.” or
“Sr.” I have opted to list most records in which there is
no clear identification under those of Rev. Edmund Lilly.
Beginning in 1785 one of the
Edmund Lilly's was the county surveyor since his name appears as such
in many of the land warrants and surveys. Ordinarily, survey work was
done by a young man since it involved a lot of traveling and field
work. The records that list Edmund Lilly as surveyor do not explicitly
identify him as “Jr.”, but I am confident that these must
refer to Edmund Lilly Jr., and so have included them in the next
section under the records of Edmund Lilly Jr. (but I could be wrong,
hence this note here).

The above 100 acres, and Edmund Lilly, were part of a lawsuit that
involved Mark Allen, the brother of Isaac Allen:
“3 Nov 1786 John McClendon
swears: He entered 150 ac in Montgomery Co on NE side of Pee Dee R; the
land borders: Edmond Lilly and Mark Allen on lower side of upper
Richland Cr. About three months later, Mark Allen reversed the courses
of a 640 ac survey so it covered his entry and omitted as much land on
‘the other’ side of the survey. [signed] Jesse McClendon
before Peter Randale, J.P.
“3 Nov 1786 Edmund Randle
swears: He heard Mark Allen tell Jesse McClendon he [Allen] reversed
the courses on a 640 ac survey and covered his [McClendon’s] 150
ac on upper Richland Cr, and he intended to ‘old the land’
from McClendon. Edmd Randle before Peter Randle, J.P. 3 Nov 1786 to
Gov. Richd. Caswell: Jesse McClendon petitions to have a grant to Mark
Allen suspended: No. 733 for 640 ac in Mont-gomery Co on E side of Pee
Dee R and both sides of Richland Cr ‘perhaps’ joins Lilly,
so a ‘legal’ trial by jury can be held. [signed] Jesse
McClendon; [on the back] 9 Dec 1786.”(86)
“19 Apr 1786 to Governor Richard Caswell from
Edmond Lilly: I entered 100 ac in Montgomery Co on NE of Pee Dee R and
joining the river; [being] surplus land of my own tract and includes my
improvement; the land is where Christopher Christian formerly
lived called the Holly Hedge land. Mark Al-len had an older
entry for 640 ac in Montgomery Co on NE of Pee Dee R and waters of
Richland Cr ‘per-haps’ joining Lilly’s lines
‘which’ I have two tracts on Richland Cr which is at least
three miles from my entry which will appear by oath of Mr. Thos
Meckeson, esq. After I entered and surveyed my land, then
‘he’ came and surveyed my land on the river which is
‘very unjust.’ I ask you to suspend his grant so the
dispute can be settled by a jury. Please deliver the return by the
bearer David Gray. [signed] Edmond Lilly. Montgomery Co 19 Apr 1786
Thomas Meggerson swears: About two years ago, he was about to buy the
above mentioned 640 ac from Mark Allen which is now in dispute between
him and Edmond Lilly. Allen said he sould [sic] put his warrant on
Richland Cr which he believes is at least three miles from
Lilly’s entry and threatened to take John Hill’s
improvement, which he believes is ‘four miles.’ He believes
Ed-mond Lilly has one or two old surveys on Richland Cr. [signed]

Edmund Lilly
(III) junior Records
Edmund Lilly
as a Surveyor
Beginning in 1785 one of the Edmund Lilly's was apparently named
the Montgomery County surveyor. I strongly suspect that it was the
younger Edmund who was so named. They are listed in chronological
order by the date of the survey.
The one underlined from 1785 suggests that the surveyor was Edmund
Lilly junior although we cannot be 100% sure of this.
The fact that an Edmund Lilly junior was listed as a chain carrier
in some surveys conducted by Edmund Lilly surprised me at first,
and
made me doubt whether I had correctly identified the right Edmund Lilly
as the surveyor. But I have now found a number of similar surveys done
by Mark Allen in which he was listed as both the surveyor and a chain
carrier, and there was only one Mark Allen in Montgomery County. So it
appears it was not at all unprecedented for the surveyor to serve as
chain carrier when the situation necessitated it.

surprised me at first, and made me doubt whether I had correctly
identified the right Edmund Lilly as the surveyor. But I have now found
a number of similar surveys done by Mark Allen in which he was listed
as both the surveyor and a chain carrier, and there was only one Mark
Allen in Montgomery County. So it appears it was not at all
unprecedented for the surveyor to serve as chain carrier when the
situation necessitated it.]
