co, NC.3 His reference number

Berreman Watts (that is how it is spelled in the record) is listed on the1763
tax list of Bladen County, NC. He has one white poll. This wouldplace his birthdate
at before 1743 and assuming that he probably came outof Virginia, then I would
guess he was born prior to 1740.
