Wilkes County, NC - Riddle Marriages

Descendants of John Riddle b. 1781 Rowan who moved to Wilkes by 1820
 
Abstract of Court record form Absher sent to me by a John Riddle descendant
 
“19 Jan 1875 Petition of Elizabeth, w Ervin Reed;
Nancy w Wm Michele; Deborah Riddle; Samuel Riddle; Wm
Riddle; John Riddle; Polly w George Hays; Milly w
Henry Benge; Sallie w Willis Benge; and Jesse Riddle;
Joel Riddle and Lucinda w Wm Glass, heirs at law of
John Riddle, dec’d. (each entitled to one share except
Jesse, Joel and Lucinda who are entitled to 1 share);
note: The last three are children of James Riddle,
dec’d, son of John R.T.A.)”

Also from the WO Absher materials, I have Deborah
"Debby"'s birthdate as 10 May 1823 in Wilkes Co.,
death date as 1 July 1923 and that she was "unmarried;
had children". For Elizabeth, Absher lists her as
being born in 1818 in Wilkes Co.

Some Riddle marriages of Wilkes. Some are recorded and some not but I can 
confirm that these people are living together as husband and wife on all 
census and do match the court record above for John Riddle descendants. 
Birth dates are Aprox and all children born in Wilkes, NC. Some children 
have died in between and names are Unk.
