Land adjoins Spruill Plantation could have been through land grants or possibly from someone leaving. A lot of that was done on the south shore where Dr. Godfrey later settled, lived and died. From the date:Oct. 1684 (posted by Rhonda Spruiell)Dr. Godfrey had settled on the Scuppernong River near the mouth of the Albemarble Sound, established his plantation 43. Years later in his will (copy from NC Archives) that was handwritten by Dr. Godfrey, he left over 1,600 acres plus his plantation (acres unknown) to his sons, grandson and a daughter Susanna. Also, he signed the will Spruill. Hope this information will help you.
