Francis Delamar

• General Notes
  • Francis Delamar II (ca 1695) was in Bath Co. before 1721. (See Pasquotank Deed Book A, p. 265). In 1722 he witnessed the will of Sarah Jones, and in 1737 he was one of the executors of the will of John Martin. In his will Martin mentioned land on the south side of Bare River (Is this Bay River?) "near the fork adjacent Francis Delamar's land". Martin also had land at the mouth of the Lower Broad Creek on the north shore of the Neuse where Francis Delamar II's sons lived.
    
    In 1745 Francis III and Thomas Delamar were listed in the militia district of Capt. Shine in Craven Co. Francis Delamar III was a captain in the Revolution.
