I am submitting the following records for distribution. I think they will complement the "Loose Papers" from Jeanne Spain. Bertie Countie is the parent county of Northhampton Co. I think it is significant that William Tyner (son of Nicholas ??) died in Bertie Co. in 1760 and his only son William was in Granville Dist. SC shortly after. Is this son William the one who died in 1780 in Northhampton Co? I would appreciate any feedback. James Russell
