I believe the John Curbow you mention in this blog post is his ancestor. He also owned land west of the Pee Dee River near Jones Creek. Would love to exchange information.

I”ve had some family business that has kept me away from genealogy over this past year. I hope you will check back for this response since I don’t have an email for you. I’ve not run across the name Hilbun/Hilburn in my research of Anson Co., but I did check the MARS search at the NC State Archives MARS - http://mars.archives.ncdcr.gov/BasicSearch.aspx . I didn’t find a Hilburn/Hilbun land record in Anson but I did find one entry for John Hilburn where he looks to have been a chain carrier for a survey done for Thomas Holliman in 1754 in Edgecombe Co. The details are below. There are a few entries for the Hilburn name and it looks to me like over the generations as the counties developed they are concentrated in Bladen and Brunswick counties. Another interesting thing to me was the entry for Vaughan Hilburn in Brunswick. I’ll speculate that he is somehow connected to the William Vaughan family that lived down in the area of Anson NC along the border with SC. And that might be another place to look for your Hilburn. That border area was invisible to those who lived there and sometimes the land deeds were filed in SC. That was one of the issues that arose in the early days of the Revolution. That is also the general area where Thomas Dickins(on) and James Farr lived. Sometimes the men listed in the court minutes where a road is being laid are there because the road is going across their land and they are responsible for clearing their portion, so his name listed seems to indicate he did own the land where that road was being laid. If you could locate Burns Path that might give you some direction where to look. But my best guess is down on the NC/SC border. And Burns Path is likely named for a path across land owned by Burns. I would not be surprised if you find John Hilburn listed in the Anson court minutes is related to yours in Burke. As you say the Lanier in Anson is the same Lanier family in Screven and in Duplin. Many of the early settlers in NC bought up land as the country expanded westward, just as many from that area of NC migrated to the Savannah River area right after the Revolution. Age-wise, say John Hilburn was at least 20 years old when he was the chain carrier in 1754, then by 1772 he’s about 40 then by the time your Hilburn shows up in GA, John is 50ish at the least, that could be his grandson, or grand nephew in GA. Hope I’ve been able to give you some help, sorry I couldn’t do more. Thanks for stopping by my blog, I’m so glad to hear you enjoy it. I’m striving to get back to genealogy and my blog and hope to be back in operation by the end of this year.<br />Linda Rudd<br /><br />Title Procter, John.

From the Anson Court Minutes: 18 Jul 1772- Ordered: Wm Ratcliff be overseer of road from Jones Creek to Burns Path & following work under him: Stephen Thomas, Wm. Pratt, Thomas Dickins, John Hilburn & James Farr. I've found no land record on him at all and am not sure how he is connected to my Hilburns who are later in Burke County, GA, on border of Screven in 1788-1815 or so. I also recognize the Lanier family you mention in Anson & Screven. Benjamin Lanier was in Duplin Co. in 1760's as John Hilburn was also in Duplin at same time. In addition, a William Hilburn was a witness on Benjamin Lanier's land record in 1763ish. I also have seen a deed later stating that Benj. Lanier was residing in "Georgey". According to Kindred Murrays, the Laniers & other Duplin folks moved to GA in late 1760's. Have you run across the Hilburn name?? <br /><br />Joy Hilbun Mohr<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9580689.post-34998295339211935422011-12-10T17:29:07.120-06:002011-12-10T17:29:07.120-06:00Neat... kinda long, tho... ;-)
