Joseph Thames1
M, (1732 - 1780)
| DNA* | | Joseph has been proven by DNA and genealogical research to be a descendant of Thomas Thames of Bladen Co., NC, born circa 1705/10. |
| Birth* | 1732 | He was born in 1732 at Craven Co., North Carolina.2 |
| (Family Member) Relocation | circa 1749 | He, as a family member, accompanied Thomas Thames in relocating circa 1749 at Bladen Co., North Carolina; Thomas & Prudence Thames with their family came to Bladen Co. from Craven Co. NC by 1750 and bought land there. There is a court record of Thomas Thems in Craven Co. as late as 1748.2 |
| Marriage* | circa 1753 | He married Martha Elizabeth Newberry at Bladen Co., North Carolina, circa 1753. The basis of the proof of the marriage of Joseph Thames to Martha Newberry is a deed of gift from her father John Newberry to his son's-in-law Joseph Thames and Peter Lord; Cumberland Co. DB-1, page # 358, 19 August 1760. This same property was sold in 1761, DB 1, page 455 by Joseph Thames and wife Martha. There are eleven other deeds between 1761 and 1769 showing sales by Joseph Thames and wife Martha. Also, his will names wife Martha. The ages of Joseph and Martha's children are based on Bladen Co. Tax Records, obituaries, tombstone, the census and the wording of the Will which seems to name them in order of birth and indicates that the last four were children and so not of age.2 |
| (Heir) Will | 6 May 1758 | Prudence and Joseph named as heir(s) in the will of Thomas Thames at Bladen Co., North Carolina, on 6 May 1758.2 |
| Will* | 11 October 1780 | He made a will at Cumberland Co., North Carolina, on 11 October 1780.1 |
| Death* | 1780 | He died at Cumberland Co., North Carolina, in 1780.1 |
| Biography* | | According to Dorothy Thames Emert, "Joseph Thames came to the Cape Fear area of North Carolina as a young man. He had been a school teacher since [his father] Thomas Thames had moved to Craven Co., NC. One document, Records of Craven County, NC, Vol. I, shows he traveled with a Moravian Missionary stating he was a school teacher from Pennsylvania. Soon after he arrived in the Cape fear area, he purchased half interest in a grist mill with John Newberry, a wheelwright. Joseph married Martha Elizabeth Newberry. In partnership with with Elizabeth's brother, John, he built a gristmill on Cross Creek in what is now Fayetteville, NC. On close inspection, the remnants of the mill (the first of its kind to be built in Fayetteville) are still visible in the creek. Joseph was proud to be a Quaker and was an active participant in the settlement of the area. After his death, his wife, Martha Elizabeth, and their children operated a Traveler's Inn on the old wagon road between Fayetteville and Wilmington, NC.
Walter Gabennesch observes: Joseph's will was written 11 October 1780 and he died shortly after writing it. Martha appears on the Bladen County Tax Exempt List of 1781. Only an unmarried woman could own property at that time. Martha was a widow in 1781. The Joseph who appears on that tax list is her son. Martha's Will is written 11 February 1814 and is recorded June 1815. She names four sons Joseph, Thomas, John, and Samuel. I think this is according to age, Joseph being the oldest. Jesse and William are dead so are not named. Martha names Joseph and John executors because they are the only sons she has left in NC. Joseph names "my sons Jesse Thames, Joseph and William Thames the sum of five shillings each" then he names "my four children Thomas, Martha, John and Samuel Thames". This indicates, to me, that his three sons Jesse, Joseph and William were of age, twenty-one years. The other children had not yet come of age... It would appear that only two of the sons of Joseph & Martha ever left NC, Thomas & Samuel. The other four died in Cumberland County, North Carolina.3,4
