: Message: Mary Yarborough of Lakeshore, MS. Her father was
Jefferson Yarborough of Lakeshore, MS. His parents were William Yarborough and Mary
Fornea who are buried in Marion County, MS. William Yarborough's father was William
Yarborough who was married to Rebecca Clark both of Fairfeild Co., SC. They were born
1788 & 1797. I believe we are talking about the same William & Rebecca. Iam interested in
identifying the parents of both. Any info
William Yarborough's parents were William Yarborough, SR. Born April 7, 1753 in Virginia,
and died in 1831 in SC. He married Charlotte Burns. I do not have any info on her.
:
Does anyone have any information about a William Yarborough/Yarborough in Warren County,
North Carolina.
I am unsure if the spelling is Yarborough or Yarbrough. The Census records indicate it is
Yarborough, however other records reflect Yarbrough.
I have located a will dated July 25, 1793. It list 4 minor children: William, Joel, Rebecca, and
Huldah. It also lists two children who had reached the age of majority; Samuel and Rhoda. It list
a grandson; Edmond Harper, and a grand-daughter; Nancy Persons. It also lists a
brother-in-law, John Mitchell.
I know that Joel Yarbrough is apprenticed to Edward Newell on August 27, 1795 'to learn
planter's buisness.
I also know that Sterling Harwell was assigned guardianship of Huldah (Huldy) Yarbrough and
Joel Yarbrough on November 29, 1797.
Guardianship of Rebecca (Reba. Yarbro) Yarbrough was assigned to Jos. Jno. Williams on
November 30, 1797.
There is also a listing in the DAR Patriot's List (1990) for a William Yarbrough with the date of
death listed as July 25, 1793. He is listed having served for North Carolina as a private in the
Revolutionary War. He is believed to have been born between 1740-1750.
I have also located a 1775 christening record for a Rhoda Yarborough; daughter of William
Yarborough and Hanna ?. However, this is from Surry, Virginia and I cannot directly link it.
Joel Yarbrough is my 4th great-grandfather. I have information from him through my siblings and
I.
If anyone knows anything, could you please email me? My email address is
wayarber@yahoo.com.

Between 1750 and 1780 there was a wave of migration toward the Carolina. Many reasons for
this have been sighted by other genealogists, such as, the land no longer produced the tobacco
crops or other crops as abundantly as in the past. History shows there was an epidemic of
smallpox which wiped out some families. Fear of this urged the people to seek the virgin soil
and unpopulated areas of that part of North Carolina which the Federal Government opened,
Indian lands, to the white settlers. North Carolina did not become a state until 1789.
Just who and how many of the Yarboroughs left Virginia for the Carolinas is not certain, but the
story of of one such group was told to Yarbrough kin of Lexington, N. C. in 1898. The story
was retold by George Yarborough, who was a descendant of Manoha and Littleton Yarbrough;
the story was printed in the Lexington, N. C. Dispatch, January 5, 1098. As the story related to
men who came to North Carolina more than one hundred years before the article was printed,
we must view it as legend. The article states: "Between the years of 1729 and 1775 seven
brothers of Yarbroughs went (from Amelia Co., Va.S over to Louisburg, Franklin Co., North
Carolina. Their names were Zachariah, Archibald, Mancha, Alexander, Thomas, Henry and
John."
While some of the above named do appear on the State Census 1764-1779, Dept. of
Archives, Raleigh, N. C., it is doubtful that the Yarboroughs mentioned in the article were sons
of the same Father. Perhaps, "brothers of Yarbroughs" meant they left brothers in Amelia Co.
or elsewhere, but came as a group of Yarbrough kin.
In a record such as this, it would be impossible to trace each man of the generation mentioned in
the above article. By the 1790 Census, most of the Yarbrough Yarborough families were gone
to another locality. There are many records to be found in North Carolina which pertain to
those Yarboroughs mentioned in the following Censuses.
Orange Co., Virginia
Joel Yarbrough was witness to an estate settlement of John Barnett. (Will book 2 - 1744-1778)

CHARLES YARBROUGH of SOUTH CAROLINA the Charles Yarbrough Will (1807
Newberry Dist., S.C.)
He was not listed in the Census of 1800, S.C. Was he perhaps in the household of his son, John
F. Yarbrough, or did he move to S. C. between 1800-1807? Where was he before that time?
From the inventory of his estate, his property included the tools of a master carpenter or a man
in the hardware business.
John F. Yarbrough was the executor of his estate and the items were ordered sold. I do not
have the dates or ages of any of the children of Charles Yarbrough; however, John F.
Yarbrough m. Sarah Strothers who was b. 1774, so I am estimating that John was b. 1770.
If this is the Charles Yarborough in Granville Co., N.C., 1786
1 male over 16 - Charles
4 males under 21 - James, Edward, William and John
1 female - wife Elizabeth
(if Mary was b. 1771, she was already married)
In 1790 Census, Halifax Co.
2 males over 16 - Charles (55) and James (or John)(21)
3 males under 16 - Edward, William and John (or James (born after 1774)
1 female - wife Elizabeth
Some material found in the estate papers of Charles Yarbrough of Fairfield Dist., Will, March
26, 1807, proved May 25, 1807. This was not noted from the will, but listed in the Estate
Papers, Box 36, File 583, South Carolina Archives.

Noticed use of YARBER. I am one. Related? 3/3/99 Line in Los Angeles. Father was
Leonard; Grandpa was Ben; supposedly one of 7 brothers from West Va or Va. They settled in
KY then Ohio. Understand YAR is Viking word for "mounded fort" which Vikings (tribe
known then as Engels)built when they invaded Central Britain. One of the ancestors was chief
counsel to the Queen and another came to America to help George Washington survey the
Ohio Valley Territory for the King. I am looking for relatives who lived in KY. I would like to
find who my great grand parents were and more. Please help!
My Grandmother was Mary Yarborough/Yarbrough from Mt. Sterling, KY- Mongomery Co
or Bath Co. Mary married John D. Newman and moved to MO. in aprox. 1893. Mary had one
sister that I know of Fanny who married a Stone.
I believe that Mary and Fanny may have had several siblings and that they lived in Bath Co.
KY. If anyone can help please e-mail me-
x1jangs@exnet.iastate.edu Followups:When did your William die in AR? Did he
stop over in TN abt. 1830-1833?
I have Cynthia, Malinda, Harriet, and Lucretia YARBROUGH and poss. bro., Willis,
b. TN around that time. They show up in
Pope Co., AR in 1847 when Willis marries.
The girls all marr. in Pope Co., also, but
no other YARBROUGHs in Pope Co. except these
siblings that I have found.
Would appreciate help locating the parents.
Thank you,
