About Francis Parker of Saura Creek

  • Francis - d. Parker's Creek, Gates Co, NC; originally Nansemond Co., land Richard Parker of Cranny Creek had obtained from tribal trust which had come to him from the last residence of Wahunseneca at Oropeak before Wahunseneca returned to King William Co to die.. * See Media Tab for more maps. Francis Parker, Chief of Cheraw, moved from LOWER DISTRICT CHEEPOAKE/Oseopeake (oldest map spelling); WEST DISMAL SWAMP land granted to him by his father to what was Edgefield and became Granville/Gates. On Oct. 19, 1720, this Francis Parker sold 210 acres to John Johnson on Horse Swamp p/390 IOW Great Book, Vol 2 on LOWER DISTRICT.

* Tithable status came via the Cheraw mother=Cheepoke/Cheopeake  west of  Dismal Swamp in the deed work which earliest primary sourced records was the ''last official residence of Wahunseneca''' Wahunseneca, Paramount chief of the Powhatan before he went back to King Williams Co, Va where he passed.  This particular land was native owned and a 7 year indenture to '''John Williams''', who did come from England and was headright transferred into the area by '''John Rice Hooe 1''', meant that this land eventually fell into the "Ancient Planter" lands where self indentureship became a practice, since the Chief Men of the Nottoway were along with the leaders of the other surrounding groups put into the stocks at Williamsburg for 3 days before they relented to allow 10 of their youth to attend school at '''Fort Christanna''' in Lawrenceville.

This group of same named BRYANT who took on the same names as the Parker Creek brothers: Francis' brother, Richard and Thomas Parker ( born c.1705 at this place [https://mapcarta.com/21330582] – headed out to Urasweep Swamp and then on to Fishing Creen and then onto Little Pee for their descendant lines, the main one having been denoted on record as Chief of Churrah under Col Eaton and then d. 1792 on the Little PeeDee SC. tithables all and even their sister named as she was a tithable on the same tax roll as he in 1790 in Gates county [http://genealogytrails.com/ncar/gates/cen_1790_headsoffamilies.html] where he flipped his fee simple land of many acres granted to him by Gov Johnston to relocate in Horry Co, where he received 1450 acres as part of the the Kingston Co Court Petitioners For A More Fair Court 1809 Group (Source: Horry Co Historical Society website). The marking of their X on the Kingston Co Court Petition by many which included some of the transferred communals who were still called Chief Men of the Nottoway, let others know that they did not think the law was fair that natives could no longer own guns, especially since they had been in a diaspora fighting in all the wars asked of them to be fought since the arrival of the British and during the Rev War.

 Settlers land grants that originated out of the Nottoway before their diaspora to Fishing Creek and a few decades that they got to enjoy bounty lands on the Little Pee Dee have been placed on each family's profiles all the way back to the Nottoway era and brought forward to the federal passported lines of this line group who had one more diasporic event over to Indian Territory, ie Cheraw, MS (today). . The original land grants -- source --[https://rla.unc.edu/dig/html/part6/ref_dk.html] "By 1754, at least one other group natives, 30-40 Saponi had traveled to North Carolina and settled on the lands of Col William Eaton, where they were enumerated in the Colonial Records of North Carolina (Saunders 1968)."Forest Hazel, Historian.  The Old Cheraw hailed from the Nottoway River over to Oropeak / Coropeake / earliest record Cheepoke denotation on the earliest maps.  The Chief of "Churrah", Thomas Parker lived next to Col Eaton on Tabb Creek by 1756 and went to Old Cheraw's Dist. once the SC Assembly formed it in 1768; and the property on the Little Pee Dee was bout from heir of Thomas Parker, Josiah Lewis, bought by Fed agent Choctaw Bill Williams, munitions supplier in War of 1812 and Jackson Paper Archives Pre-Bia Indian Agent to Ft Adams, which is where the transfer community was passported to in 1810.
