Wilkerson Weatherford, was born about 1726, in either New Kent County or Lunenburg County, Virginia, the son of William Weatherford, Jr. and Susanna (possibly Wilkerson). Wilkerson migrated to North Carolina. Wilkerson died in 1790, in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.

We believe it was in North Carolina that he met Susanna (last name unknown). At this time, we know almost nothing about Wilkerson. We do know that some of his descendants claimed that both Wilkerson and Susanna were Cherokee Indian.

Wilkerson and Susanna's children included

1. (1) Hilkiah Weatherford, born in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina;
2. (2) Agnes Weatherford, born about 1740 - 1755, in North Carolina, married John Vann, then married _____ Burleson ;
3. (3) Ursula Weatherford, born 1758, in Montgomery County, North Carolina, died 1835, in Rutherford County, Tennessee, married David F. Burleson;
4. (4) William Weatherford, born 1759);
5. (5) Mary Weatherford, born about 1760 - 1770; and
6. (6) John S. Weatherford, born about 1764, in North Carolina, married Wealthy Ward.
