John Newman moved his family from Sampson County, North Carolina, to Pulaski 
County, Georgia, between the 1820 and 1830 censuses.  This record of John 
selling his land to his older brother William in 1827 helps to pinpoint the 
timing of that move a little more precisely.  William remained in Sampson, as 
did many of his descendants, including his son Jacob Newman who died there in 
1869.

I haven't tried yet to figure out where this land is located, but wouldn't be 
surprised to find that it was part of land originally purchased by John's 
grandfather William Newman and father Edward Newman beginning in about 1761 in 
what was then Duplin County.
