Land patent speculator with multiple properties in Scriven Co, NC made this deed: . I John Lott Senr ... for love and affection toward my dutiful and loving son John Lott, Jr. give 150 head of cattle, signed 11 Oct 1795 John Lott Senr and Bethany (X) Lott [wit:] Benjamin Richardson Junior, Benjamin Richardson J.P. ... Earlier that year, a deed in the same county stated ... we John Lott Junr son of John Lott Sr and Sally my wife ... grant to John Lott, Sr 900 acres, signed 13 Jan 1795 John Lott Junr and Sally (X) Lott [wit:] John Hatcher, Elyhu Wiggins ... (Deed Record A, part I pp.22-23 and pp. 39-40). The deed work can be traced from Tatnois Swamp NC John Lott Jr deeds, founder of Marion Co, MS who married Sarah "Sallie" Lightfoot and is buried on Nathan Lott's Estate in Jones Co, MS. This is how we know that the father of the Marion Co, MS founder 's father, John Lott Sr was married to a woman called "Eliabeth Bethany". She was not the same "Bethany" as the John Lott of Licking Creek's wife, Elizabeth Joyner. Also, these were port interest owner with connections to Atlantic Trade of all kinds which is why the Lightfoot of Pamunky Neck and Eutaw, AL are connected by marriage and business. John Lott, Sr had many Spanish Land grants and the homesteads that were per lottery in what was a Georgia Succession resulted in 8 more properties, which when the West Florida Replublic came to its end, John Lott, Jr moved from Ga to what is now his founded town of Columbia, MS and petitioned for the first courthouse there; moving over by 1807 and petitioning for the courthouse once W.C.C.Claiborne, territorial Governor, had won the Pensacola skirmish against the small number of Spanish defending their interests. That was in 1813 for that battle and then much bounty land was destributed once Spain ceded the rest of Florida Parishes in 1816.

Reportedly, both these John's transferred their land in Screven County and moved to Montgomery County, Georgia at the point of awaiting their bounty lands and meanwhile, ten years of Patriot war service by the Jr was at the command of Gen Pugh (the one from Bertie Co with land holding over where the other Patriot John Lott of Licking Creek was raising a militia for Capt Rice Hooe IV of Appomatox Co which is where the other John Lott Patriot married to Bethany Joyner, differerent people resided. We know this because of the military records of both John Lotts. One fought for Hooe (say it like How) with the "Hoosiers" meaning Canal Builders and most of those Lotts and Letts ended up as FPOC in Indiana from where the term Hoosier is derived; and, the other Patriot John Lott, Jr fought under Pugh with the Southern Tuscororans. . The tax list for Montgomery County, 1797-98 listed a John Lott, Jr and a John Lott, Sr. It is known that one of these John's was the one married to Sallie (Lightfoot). The secondary record for the mom of John Lott Jr is Delilah Jones per Baron's work. The mother of Absolom Lott is by secondary record Elizabeth Joyner with the name Emile in it. The Licking Creek Bethany does not have any evidence of having the name Emile in her name.
