there's fabrication in these notes

Information on local BB tied to NGS on 7/10/94 from _ suggests that "James Osborn was born Warwick, England 1675; he and son, Unknown Osborne migrated to Somerset Co., Maryland. James was a schoolmaster. Family later migrated to New Jersey where James lives the rest of his life. Jonathan named one of his sons, Jonathan , Jr.

Jonathan Osborn, Jr., married in New Jersey. Children were Stephen 1745; Solomon Ephraim Osborn 1746; 9soldier in 1775 War), James, Thomas, several more kids. Some of the family stayed in NJ, but about 1753, Jonathan and other kids named above migrated south to South Carolina where Stephen Osborn married Comfort Langham in 1765.

Some of the clan remained in SC, but Jonathan, Ephraim, Thomas,Stephen, and their families moved to North Carolina and settled in Surry Co., NC , on Yadkin River across from Old Boonesville (first home of Daniel Boone). They were there as early as 1767. It was here that Solomon Ephraim Osborn married Elizabeth Howard.

Solomon E. Osborn and Elizabeth Howard's kids were Encoh (in 1776 was Captain in war), Robert James, Jonathan 13 Feb., 1752, in Rowan Co. , NC (1776 War soldier).

Other information received from Lucille Muncy Carter from Eubank, Kentucky, shows that they family emigrated to Virginia on the ship James Goodwill arriving Oct. , 1720.

Death dates and burial place are unknown. No list of other children. The compiler believes this family may have come to colonies as indentured servants.
