  Thomas Gaddy info from Jim Gaddy website Gaddy, Thomas
  (~1753 - ~1814) b. ABT. 1753 in Dale Parish, Chesterfield
  Co., VA d. ABT. 1814 in Anson County, NC father: Gaddy,
  Thomas(~1729 - ~1788) mother: Lucy, ?(*1731 - ) Thomas was
  married at least twice, maybe 3 times. His will dated Feb.
  1814 lists Millison as his wife but a sale of land in 1785
  lists his wife as Amelia. A descendant of his daugter, Jane
  "Sis" Gaddy Dabbs states in a DAR application that Thomas'
  first wife was Jane. So it seems that he was married first
  to Jane, second to Amelia and third to Millison. If he was
  indeed married to Amelia in 1785 then she is probably the
  mother of Samuel. Millison may not be mother to any of
  Thomas' children. Anson County Land Record show that Thomas
  Gaddy bought the following land: * 22 Jan. 1773 100 acres
  in Anson Co. * 7 Dec. 1776 from William Leverett * 10 Apr.
  1785 from James Gordon * date unknown from Malachi Watts *
  1 Nov. 1794 from John Allen * Nov. 1797 from William May,
  Jr. * 5 Oct. 1807 from John Duncan * 17 Apr. 1810 from
  Thomas Hill * 21 Mar. 1812 from Rheuben Phillips This land
  was in Gulledge Township on Jones Creek and Little Brown
  Creek. Prior to the first land grant in 1773, applied for
  in 1771, we have no record of where he lived.
  
  Thomas served in the Revolutionary War from March 1776 to
  September 1778. At the time of his enlistment he was living
  in Anson County. He was in Captain Benjamin Colman's
  Company, 2nd North Carolina Battalion commanded by Colonel
  John Patton, White Plains. He also served in 5th North
  Carolina Regiment, Darnal's Company.
