DESCENDANTS OF WILLIAM AND ANNE NORTON
The William & Anne Norton lineage is a result of the combined tedious and time consuming efforts of Mary Norton Doggett;
Douglas W. Hathcock; William A. Norton; Bill Gullickson;
Joseph Moore; June Melvin; Nancy Norton; Sam Norton;
Ed Norton; Myrtle Norton Bridges;
Marcy Stephens (Descendants of Andrew Jackson Norton); & Isaac C. Adams, the compiler
of "Ancestors of Norton - Johnson - Morgan - Fletcher and Bundy and others.
This genealogy is incomplete and imperfect. It is intended as a guide for Norton family researchers.
This work contains many notes which may help further your research. If you have any data connecting
to this family please email Myrtle. Please visit again, these pages are revised
as data is received. Thanks.
Generation No. 1
1. WILLIAM1 NORTON was born Abt. 1690. He married ANNE. She was born Abt. 1700.

2. i. JAMES2 NORTON, SR., b. October 02, 1721, Bristol Parish, Prince George County, VA.

Notes for MARY NORTON:
Mary's birth date is January 09, 1723. She was baptized Nov. 01, 1724. The double dates shown account
for the crossover between the Julian and Gregorian calendars. If a date falls between January 01 and
March 25 for any year before 1753, a double date will appear.

Generation No. 3
3. ISHAM3 NORTON, SR. (JAMES2, WILLIAM1) was born Abt. 1752 in Northampton Co., NC, and died Abt. 1833 in
Richmond County, NC. He married UNKNOWN CALHOUN Abt. 1780. She was born Abt. 1755 in Richmond County, NC,
and died Abt. 1825 in Richmond County, NC.
Notes for ISHAM NORTON, SR.:
Numerous DNA tests show that our Norton Y-DNA lines have been merged. It seems very likely that James Norton Sr.
and Martha Hathcock must have raised at least one Hathcock orphan and since that boy used the Norton name, he must
have been quite young when he was adopted. Since our Norton lines come through Isham, I suppose it is very likely
the merge would have to have been him.
We believe Isham was likely the son of Thomas Hathcock, brother of Martha Hathcock Norton. Perhaps Thomas' wife
died at the birth of Isham, and being unable to care for an infant he asked his sister to take the boy and raise
him as her own.
Isham resided in Northamption Co., NC during the Revolutionary War. He was drafted and served two tours (9 mos.)
under Capt. John Peterson, Capt David Short; General Richard Caswell, Commanding Officer. Then under Capt. Jesse
Dupree and Col. Linton, General Sumner. He was present and engaged in a skirmish with the enemy at the Town of
Halifax, NC. His service was altogether performed in different parts of North Carolina, and he was very little
with the Continental Troops. US Pension Certificate #16263, Richmond County, NC. Isham's pension file #S7 265,
shows last pension paid 9-4-1833. Certificate of Pension issued the 20th day of July 1833 and sent to Martin D.
Crawford Rockingham, NC.
In March 1787 Isham Norton, Sr., James Norton, Jr, and some of his neighbors including one Starling Rachels, also
moved to Richmond County. The Nortons, Rachels, and Hathcocks were all neighbors in Richmond County and lived near
Joe's Creek. Mr. John Arch Rachels provided the names of the children of Isham Norton, Sr.
Starling Rachels was listed very close to the Nortons in the 1786 Census of Northampton Co., NC, and the 1790 Census
of Richmond County. Fredrick Norton and Sterling (Starling) Rachel witnessed James Norton, Sr's land grant #1084
in 1799. He testified that Isham Norton was born in Northampton Co., NC in Isham's pension application.
Data from 1800 State Census of North Carolina, Richmond County:
Isham Norton, 4 white males under 10 yrs of age; 1 white male of 10 yrs. and under 16; 1 white male of 26 yrs.
and under 45 yrs. including heads of families, and 1 female of 45 and upwards including heads of families.
Data from 1810 State Census of North Carolina, Richmond County:
Isham Norton, 2 white males under 10 yrs of age; 2 white males of 10 yrs, and under 16; 3 white males
of 16 and under 26, including heads of families; 1 white male of 45 and upwards including heads of families;
2 white females under 10 years of age; 1 white female of 26 yrs. and under 45 yrs. including heads of families.
Children of ISHAM NORTON and UNKNOWN CALHOUN are:
i. JAMES4 NORTON, b. Abt. 1782, Richmond County, NC.
Notes for JAMES NORTON:
I have been unable to document that James Norton, son of Isham, was married to Nancy Pate. Richmond County records
do show a close association between the Nortons and the Pates. James Norton would have been about 21 years of age
in 1803. He died between 1832-1850. The 1850 Census of Robeson County shows Nancy Norton and sons Joshua and
Augustus both born Richmond County, living with Stephen Pate and his family.
The Richmond County Court Minutes for June 1803 show that the following men were appointed to work on the road
from the middle of the run of Little Pee Dee at the Poley Bridge to the S. C. State line: (Very early in Richmond
County, if you lived near a proposed road you were expected to help build it.) James Norton, Thoroughgood Pate,
Stephen Pate, James Patterson, Matthew Watson, Daniel McNair, Neill McNair, Archibald Johnson, Starling Rachael,
Elias Pate, Edmund Morrison, Angus McDaniel, Daniel Campbell, Duncan Campbell, James Butler, John Butler, Edward
Butler, Duncan McLaurin, Alexander Clark, Alexander McNair, Daniel McLean, John McLean, Hugh McLean, and Matthew Woodle.

He married (2) ELIZABETH CALHOUN1 Abt. 18341. She was born 1808 in NC1, and died Aft. July 11, 1870 in Richmond Co.
Stewartsville, NC1.
Notes for JOHN I. NORTON:
I began with the 1820 and 1830 Census records of Richmond County, NC in an attempt to prove my theory that John Norton
(b. 1789), son of Isham Norton, is in fact the father of my ancestor Jeremiah Norton,
The 1820 Census of Richmond County, NC shows John Norton, 26 and under 45 (b. abt 1789, he was about 31); his wife,
26 and under 45 and 3 sons 10 yrs or younger.
(Jeremiah would have been about 8 yrs, and the other 2 sons younger. Neill b.1817 and John Calvin b 1818?)
The 1830 Census of Richmond County, Stewarts, NC shows
John I. Norton b. bet. 1780-1790;
1 female b. 1790-1800; (wife McMillan?)
1 male b. bet. 1810-1815; (Jeremiah)
2 males b. bet. 1815-1820; (Neill & John Calvin?)
1 male b. bet. 1820-1825; (Isham? Isham, 30, lived with Neill during 1860)
1 female b. bet. 1820-1825;
2 females b. 1825-1830. (Myrtle: 1-22-2007)
John's 1st wife may have died in childbirth c.1830, (Isham?) and John remarried about 1835 to Elizabeth Calhoun
and began another family.
1840 - John Norton (b. 1789) was not found in Richmond County, NC.
1850 Census of Richmond County John Norton is married to Elizabeth, who is thought to be his 2nd wife.

1860 Census of Williamson Township, Gibson's Store, dwelling #661 John
Norton 71; Elizabeth 47; Martha 20; Amanda 18; and Elizabeth Norton 13.
1860 Census of Williamson Township, Gibson's Store, dwelling #734 shows
Jerry/Jeremiah Norton 36, b. NC (Myrtle's oldest known Norton ancestor);
Viney 25, b. SC; Thos. 8, b. NC; Amos 6, b. NC; and Catharine Norton 4, b. NC.
1870 Census of Richmond County, Stewartsville, NC shows John I. Norton 80; Betsy 60 & Julia M. 3 yrs.
(This record clearly shows John's middle initial is 'I'.)
Comments:
John's age in 1850 suggests that he may have been married previously, and is likely the father of Jeremiah (1812)
and perhaps John Calvin Norton (1818-1823), and others. This would explain the fact that Andrew J. Norton 45, lived
near John Calvin and Emeline Norton in Harleesville, Marion County, SC in 1880.
A couple of points... my dad remembers that his dad mentioned once or twice an uncle "Jack" (his dad
Carl Martin Norton Sr. was born 1896 in Little Rock SC (Dillon Co - formerly Marion Co). As dad recalls... his
dad said this Uncle Jack was "around" but not a close family member (1/2 bro. of his grandfather who had died at
this point would make sense then). He also things that Uncle Jack was described as being taller and darker than
the "other Nortons" - my dad and granddad was about 5'9". (Sam Norton - Cleveland, Tennessee)
Andrew J. Norton (b. 1835 by John I's 2nd wife Elizabeth Calhoun) lived next to John Calvin Norton; he is buried
in the same cemetery; he was born when John Calvin Norton was about 16 or 17; both are from NC, and other than
JC Norton's family, Andrew J. Norton is the only Norton listed in the small group of charter members of
Little Rock Baptist Church. Chances are Andrew J. is half-brother to John and Jeremiah. The Norton DNA results
prove this theory is likely. Myrtle Norton Bridges 1-23-08)

10. ELI4 NORTON (ISHAM3, JAMES2, WILLIAM1) was born Abt. 1804 in Richmond County, NC, and died Bet. 1860 - 1870
in Scotland Co., NC. He married RACHEL LINDSAY. She was born June 24, 1822 in Richmond County, NC, and died
January 12, 1906 in Scotland County, NC.
Notes for ELI NORTON:
Eli was given a grant #2200 of one hundred acres in consideration of $5.00, County of Richmond, east side of
Big Beaver Dam Swamp; the description mentions Sweet Gum Branch. This was given by General Assembly in 1845,
and signed by W. A. Graham, Governor of NC.
Between 3 March 1871 and 3 March 1873, Southerners filed 22,298 claims before the Southern Claims Commission
(SCC) based on the fact they were loyal to the Union during the Civil War; had quartermaster stores or supplies
taken by or furnished to the Union Army during the rebellion.
Southern Loyalists made 22,298 claims for property losses totaling $60,258,150.44. However, only 7,092 claims
(32%) were approved for settlements totaling $4,636,920.69. Each claimant sought to prove their loyalty and loss
through the testimony of others. The paper trail created by the claimants and the people who came forward to
testify, for or against a claimant, provide a wealth of information about individuals living in the South during
the Civil War.
#8453. Claim of Eli Norton, of Laurel Hill, Richmond County, North Carolina
1 Bay horse $125; 17 chickens $4; 10 lbs lard $2; 2 bu. corn, $3; 1 bu pease, $2; 2 bu potatoes $1; 3 pr pants $3;
2 pr stockings; 1 comb; 1 looking glass; 1 sadle $4; 1 bridle $4; 2 gals sirup $1.50. Total $148.90
Remarks: This Claimant resided in Richmond County, North Carolina throughout the War. He says he was a Union man,
and that is about all the proof of the fact derived from his own testimony. He lived in peace, and was neither
molested, injured nor threatened on account of his Unionism. He had two sons in the confederate army, William Norton
and Darling Norton, and several nephews. He calls three witnesses to prove his loyalty; John C. Norton, thirty-three
years of age, who swears he has known the claimant thirty years; Hiram Norton, twenty-three years of age, who says
"he has known Eli Norton ever since he knew anybody;" and Darling Norton, aged twenty seven years, who says he has
know the claimant, Eli Norton ever since he has known anybody. Nobody tells us the relationship of these witnesses
to the claimant. Darling is probably his confederate soldier son; the others probably sons or nephews. If the
claimant was really a loyal adherent to the cause of the Government of the United States during the war, it seems
incredible that he would rely upon his kinsmen alone to prove his loyalty. We are not satisfied with the proofs
of loyalty, and reject the claim.
It takes a lot of food, supplies, and horse-power to keep an army on the move. During the Civil War, it was customary
for soldiers to show up at someone's farm or residence and requisition whatever their regiment needed.
In 1864, the U.S. government started to officially recognize claims by its citizens for reimbursement of these necessities.
Yet it was not until 1871, six years after the Civil War ended, and after public emotions about the war had calmed, that
the government decided to do something to address the considerable number of requests from all its citizens, including
those in the south.
Through an act of Congress on March 3, 1871, the Southern Claims Commission, also known as the Commissioners of Claims,
was created. Three commissioners, appointed by the president, were compelled to "receive, examine, and consider the
claims of those citizens who remained loyal adherents to the cause and the government of the United States during the
war, for stores or supplies taken or furnished during the rebellion."
Many claims were quickly dismissed. They can be found in a publication entitled Barred and Disallowed Case Files. The
rest are collected by state under the title of Southern Claims Commission Approved Claims 1871-1880. Often, those
loyal to the Union who provisioned the troops were ultimately denied reparations, even though their claims for
compensation were approved.
The 1880 Census of Richmond County, Williamson Township shows:
(Dwelling #437) Rachel Norton, 60
Mary J. Norton, 33
Margret Norton, 30

Some say Rachel was a daughter of Rev. Colin Lindsay. Rev. Lindsay died 1817 in Richmond County, NC (1744-1817).
His wife Elizabeth survived him. His will mentions only his wife and a nephew, Colin McLauchlin.

20 chickens $5; 100 old bank-bills $110. Total $1106.75
Remarks: The claimant swears to loyal sentiments and sympathies; says he was conscripted in 1863, and hired a substitute
to serve in the rebel army, and that in 1864 he enlisted under a proclamation of the governor and served some six weeks
and then got a furlough, and did not return. Three or four witnesses swear to loyalty of claimant in general terms, but
never mention that he furnished a substitute or served in person in the rebel army, which indicate how unreliable and
worthless the testimony of witnesses to loyalty frequently is, and how averse many of our special commissioners seem
to putting questions that would draw out testimony injurious to claimant. We regard the acts of claimants as inconsistent
with the character of a loyal man, and therefore reject the claim. Source: Digest of Disallowed Claims

Notes for LEVINEY 'VINEY' JANE PIGG:
Viney Jane Pigg was a very small, tiny woman.
Dec 27, 2007: My research in 1850 Census of Chesterfield County, SC shows 'Our Viney Jane Pigg b. Oct 18, 1831' may
be 'Jane Pigg, 18, female, b. SC daughter of Moses (b. c1786 VA) and Winny Pigg (b. c1816 SC). Viney Jane Pigg and
Jeremiah Norton married June 09, 1850. Moses is thought to be a son of Erasmus Pigg (b c1741 Spotslyvania Co, VA - d.
before 1830, probably SC)
Moses Pigg 64, Blind, b. VA; Winny 33 wife b SC; Hollis, 10, b SC; Starlin 8, b SC; Queen A. 7, b SC; Esther A Pigg,
5, b SC; Jane Pigg, 18, b. SC.
(m 21, and f 21, names not shown, have been penciled into this family. There is 8 years between Jane and Hollis.
This may indicate that Winny is 2nd wife of Moses, and Jane and the male 21 and female 21year olds, are from his
first marriage. (Speculation only)

died April 04, 1899 in SC1. He married EMMALINE HURSEY1 Abt. 18501, daughter of ROBERT HUSSEY and CYNTHIA FLOYD).
She was born March 10, 1834 in SC1, and died December 15, 1915 in SC1.
Notes for JOHN CALVIN NORTON:
I go back to John Calvin Norton b. 1818 NC and died 1899 and is buried in Little Rock outside Dillon SC, at
St. Paul's Methodist Church, in Marion (now Dillon) Co. He married Emmaline Hursey, who was a good bit younger.
He had the following children - Daniel, Preston, John A., Calvin Longstreet, and Alexander Gilmore (my great grandfather).
He was a charter member of the Baptist Church in Little Rock having transferred from another Baptist Church up the
road towards NC. That would have been in the 1880's I believe. (Source: Sam Norton- Cleveland Tenn)
On Oct 15, 1850 John Calvin 27, b. SC, and Emeline 17, are enumerated in Marion, SC in dwelling 1292.
In Dwelling 1297 I find Alexander Norton 24, b. SC, and wife Precilla 19, and daughter Margaret Norton.
(Are John Calvin and Alexander related?)
In 1860 Calvin's address was P.O. Allens Bridge, SC, Marion County. Calvin Norton 35 b. NC; E. Norton 30 b. SC;
D. Norton 12; M. Norton 10; J. A. Norton 6; P. Norton 3 yrs.
Not found in 1870 Census;
In 1880 Calvin is in Harleesville, Marion County, SC
The following entries from St. Paul's Methodist cemetery are my family, so far as I know...
J.C.Norton 7/17/1818-4/4/1899 - my great great grandfather
Emmaline wife of J.C.Norton 3/10/1834-12/15/1915 - his wife whose father was Robert Hursey (son of
Samuel Hussey I believe, from Horry Co. SC as I recall) I saw Robert's will is in Marion Co. probate
office and it is now on-line at ...
http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/sc/marion/wills/h2000001.txt
Note: I believe the "Caroline Norton" should be "Emaline Norton" I saw the original will myself.
I believe John Calvin Norton purchased some land that was formerly owned by Samuel Hussey and then
perhaps Robert Hussey (JCN's father-in-law). Not to dwell on the Hursey / Hussey family, but the Lee
and Lane families are tied in there somewhere I believe. Also, Floyd family. Note: Emaline's mother
is probably Cynthia Lee, daughter of Job Lee, and is buried in Robeson Co. NC My grandmother had told
me that Emaline's mother was a Floyd. I think that Floyd might have been the grandmother however.
Daniel Norton 1852-1924 - oldest brother of Alexander Gilmore Norton
Amanda Norton 1862-1946 - his wife
Calvin Longstreet Norton 5/5/1864-8/17/1931 - older brother of my AG Norton (father of the older great
aunts I interviewed 3 years ago)
Lillie Andrews Norton 10/7/1876-11/13/1957 - his wife
(I met two of Calvin Longstreet, Norton's daughter's! These are the only living folks of my grandfather's
generation that I knew of... back in 1999. One is Eula Braswell, who I visited while in Little Rock, and
who was living with her daughter (the post mistress). She was in her mid-80's in 1999. Also, I spoke at
length on the phone to Erma Campbell who lived with her daughter Barbara Cooper in Laurinburg in 1999.
She provided the most information. I tell you more about that later.
Alexandra Gilmore Norton 3/27/1867-12/14/1944 - my great grandfather
His wife, Rose Allie Millican 11/24/1874-1/23/1951 - my great grandmother, probably was from Whiteville,
Columbus Co. NC (but have never found her or her parents elsewhere... may have immigrated)
Clara A. dau.of A.G.& Allie Norton 6/10/1902-8/21/1903 - this must be the daughter that I mentioned who
died at early age leading to problems with the parents
John A. Norton 3/28/1871-3/10/1930 - younger brother of my AG Norton
I guess Victoria is his wife, but I don't see her tombstone here
Preston, the youngest brother is not in this cemetery. He had moved over towards the coast. A distant uncle,
Lucian Norton, still lives in the home Preston Norton house in Nichols in Horry Co. SC. He should be about
73 yrs old now. His sister is Jacklyn Norton Strickland(sp?) Byrd ... not sure about last name, seems that
she remarried. She is probably 78 yrs old now. These are both grandchildren of Preston Norton, both professional
folks, him an engineer, she a teacher. I spoke to both of them on the phone a few years ago. I'll find my notes
and send you what I can find. You know, maybe I'll call them to see how they're doing (my parents actually went
and met Lucian on a trip to Myrtle Beach)
A bunch of these other Nortons are probably kids of AG Norton's brothers (and grandkids of Calvin and Emaline).
Both I heard from my dad that he thought there were other non-related Nortons there. Not sure he really knows.
Now - about Andrew J. He lived next to John Calvin Norton, he's buried in the same cemetery, he was born when
JC Norton was about 16 or 17, they're both apparently from NC originally, and besides John Calvin Norton's family,
Andrew J Norton is the only other Norton listed in the small group of charter members of Little Rock Baptist Church.
Chances are they're related. He would have been about 15 years old in the 1850 census.
A couple of points... my dad remembers that his dad mentioned once or twice an uncle "Jack" (his dad Carl Martin Norton Sr.
was born 1896 in Little Rock SC (Dillon Co - formerly Marion Co). As dad recalls... his dad said this Uncle Jack was
"around" but not a close family member (1/2 bro. of his grandfather who had died at this point would make sense then).
He also thinks that Uncle Jack was described as being taller and darker than the "other Nortons" - my dad is and granddad
was are about 5'9". Source: Sam Norton

with this family by recording only Jackson, Malinda, Duncan. He began August 24, 1860 by recording the youngest
members of this Norton family, Silas 3, & Simeon 1 in the Laurel Hill District, Springfield Post Office. Confusing.

Andrew J. 11; Jane 13; John A. 9; Maggie 7; and Robert L. 3 (all shown as his children). Simeon Norton was
next door with wife Bettie 16. Duncan 24, and Silas 22, not shown with the family in 1880.
The 1900 Fed. Census of Marion County, Harleesville, SC shows Lettie Norton 16, (b. May 1884), granddaughter,
with Andrew J. 65, (b. Feb 1835. Listed as 'Jack' Norton this year) and Malinda 65, (b. Dec 1834). They were
married 46 yrs, and parented 10 children, 8 living. Andrew is shown as a Miller (grinder), and could read and write.
Now - about Andrew J. Norton In 1880 He lived next to John Calvin Norton in Harleeville, Marion County, SC.
He and John Calvin are buried in St Paul's Methodist cemetery, Dillon. He was born when John Calvin Norton was
about 16 or 17, they're both from NC originally. Also, J C Norton's family, Andrew J Norton are listed in the
small group of charter members of Little Rock Baptist Church. It is very likely that Andrew J. is half-brother
to John b. c 1818 and Jeremiah Norton b c 1812, all sons of John Norton b c. 1789-1790 Richmond County, NC

Notes for EMALINE NORTON:
Emeline 33 & Eliza (Ann) 25, were living together in Stewartsville Dist. Richmond County during 1860's.
"Emeline Norton's name is spelled Emeline, Emiline, Emaline, Emmaline, and Emarline. Christian and Emeline Norton
had children out of wedlock. In the Bastardy Bonds of Richmond County for the 1840s and 1850s, there is a bond for
Christian signed by a number of Nortons, including her brother, Daniel Norton.
Two bonds exist for Emiline Williamson, but none can be found for Emeline Norton. S. H. Norton might or might not
be the name of the father of Hiram. Emeline fell in love with a gentleman named Sneed who died in the Civil War
and was also listed on the Census Records as "Emeline Carter."
Hiram Norton appears to be the eldest of four illegitimate children born to Emeline: Our Hiram, then Rebecca Norton
(1849 - before 1910) who married Darling Norton (1844 - 12 Jan 1932), the brother of Martha Ann Norton, Silas Norton
(26 Aug 1856 - 5 Nov 1934), who witnessed his half-brother's wedding and was married to Margaret Catherine Watson

Notes for JOHN CALVIN NORTON:
John Calvin was a member of a committee composed of Younger Snead and others which established Snead's Grove Methodist
Church and remained a loyal supporting member until his death. Land for the school house and church at Snead's Grove
was donated by Younger Snead and John Calvin Norton furnished the lumber for the two buildings. The wooden school
building was moved to become a recreation building for the Old Laurel Hill Presbuterian Church when funds became
available for the new brick school in 1924.
John Calvin was a tall, erect, medium weight, fair complexioned man, with clear penetrating eyes.
Immaculate in dress and surroundings, and liked everyone else around him to be the same way. He had an
old-time dignity, was gentle, but had plenty of temper if the occasion demanded it.

born May 1852 in SC.
Notes for WILEY NORTON:
On the subject of Wiley Norton, he is mentioned on the marriage license of Hiram and Martha Ann, which also
points out Hiram's Mother, Emeline. I believe the name of his father is a bit of fiction: 'S. H. Norton'.
The other wedding witness was Silas Norton, Hiram's younger brother. We can only imagine the difficulties
prompted by Emeline's mishandling of her "marriages". (Edward Norton)

A wagoner in 1870.
The 1880 Census of Richmond County, Williamson District shows Hiram Norton 32; Martha 25; Della 5; Mary 2;
and Martha Linzie 55, boarder b. NC living with this family.
Hiram and Martha were first cousins, being children of brothers, Elijah Norton and Eli Norton, sons of
Isham Norton, Sr. I personally feel that Hiram would be blown away by the fact that I've done all this
research on his family. It is indeed a shame that a flu bug took Martha Ann (at the records office in
Raeford she's referred to as "Annie Norton") before Hiram died in January, 1931. My Grandmother Norton
knew a bunch of this stuff. This family was found in the 1910 Census of Robeson Co., NC, Blue Springs
Township in (part of) all northeast of Little Raft Swamp and the center of the county road leading from
Turn Pike bridge to Bowmore.

she was buried with Martha Ann's photo. Folks back then (STUPIDLY!) did this alot. (Edward Norton)

However, when they moved away from their previous place--the new land they had purchased was dry as dirt--and

May 13, 1897 Issue Fayetteville Observer
The facts of the murder on Col. Bethune's plantation are at last coming to light and a horrible aspect
they present. From the Red Springs Citizen (Robeson County, NC) we learn the following facts brought
out before the coroner's jury:
Tolar and his wife and a man named White stayed on Norton's place (Col. Bethune's plantation). Tolar
became jealous of his wife and Norton. About this time Norton's wife was taken sick, and Tolar's wife
was hired to wait on her, and she with her husband and White occupied the same house with Norton's
family up to the time of the killing of Tolar, which occurred last Monday morning about 3 o'clock.
Sunday afternoon Tolar disappeared. About 2 o'clock Monday morning he reappeared at the house and
knocked for admission. This aroused Norton, who snatched his double barreled shot gun, ordered the
door to be opened and emptied the contents of one barrel into the stomach of deceased. (Norton claims
that deceased was approaching with knife drawn.) Deceased then fell from the steps to the ground, but
arose again. Just then Tom White opened fire on him with his gun, and Norton again fired, thus
completing their deadly work.
Although there were several women in the house at the time (including the murdered man's wife), such
an unusual occurrence created very little excitement and no one commented on the affair, as was testified
by all the witnesses, and the wife of deceased seemed to be the least of all concerned.

and Martha Linzie 55, boarder b. NC living with this family.
Hiram and Martha were first cousins, being children of brothers, Elijah Norton and Eli Norton, sons of
Isham Norton, Sr. I personally feel that Hiram would be blown away by the fact that I've done all this
research on his family. It is indeed a shame that a flu bug took Martha Ann (at the records office in
Raeford she's referred to as "Annie Norton") before Hiram died in January, 1931. My Grandmother Norton
knew a bunch of this stuff. This family was found in the 1910 Census of Robeson Co., NC, Blue Springs
Township in (part of) all northeast of Little Raft Swamp and the center of the county road leading from
Turn Pike bridge to Bowmore.
