The below was posted to Eileen McGrath, Wilson Historical Library, UNC, and others, today: It is not clear to me whether or not you follow my notes of late, but I am serious about my latest about Lanes of North Carolina. Please indulge me by keeping this note with my others on Pates, Petts, Pelts, Lanes and Laenen van Pelts. This is explicit connection of this family of North Carolina to New York and New Jersey. It helps explain Pate shipbuilding at Hobucken, which town was so named by timber men from Dutch Hoboken, New Jersey. In this note are many names, e.g., Wynn, Powell, Lawrence, etc., associated historically with Pates and their synonymy. Arthur Pett explored the St. Lawrence Valley to the Genessee River in New York, before his death in the Jamestown, Virginia, harbor. Nathaniel Powell was author of the map on which are shown Welsh Indians, of the PeeDee River Valley diocese of the Rev. Bishop Charles Pate, with which Wynns of Wayne County were associated into my lifetime, with close kin among Croatoan Lumbee and Coharie (originally noble Italian Cojari) Indians of Sampson (originally Italian Sanson) and Robeson (originally Robertson) Counties. The above referred to connections are genealogically associated with the Lanen van Pelts of New York and North Carolina at: http://www.sallysfamilyplace.com/Neighbors/ancstJHH.htm Notify Administrator about this message?
