Abraham appeared each year 1787-1805 on Pistol
Creek paying taxes on 150 acres. In 1796, the amount
of land was 110 acres. In 1799 and thereafter, the
amount of land was 100 acres. Adjacent land owners
were Jacob Lindsey (?), Thomas Lindsey, Edward
Lindsey, and John Neil. Note: Abraham was listed as
Sr. in 1792 even though there were no other Abraham
Lindsey’s listed as owning land or paying a poll. This
was the only time Abraham was listed as Sr.

Abraham paid one poll, but no property tax. Since
this was his first year of paying taxes, he was born ca.
1783. He lived near Jacob Lindsey Sr. and may have
been a son of Jacob.

(This is Abraham 1)
Because Abraham Lindsey was listed as living on
Pistol Creek, there is an inference that another
Abraham Lindsey lived in Wilkes Co. who was
eligible, but who did not enter. He must have been
born by 1784, and he did not live on Pistol Creek.

It is thought that Milley’s daughter from a previous

daughters who were too old to have been from Dolphin and
Milley’s marriage. Milley was a daughter of John Glenn,

would have been born ca. 1784.

James Lindsey did not participate. Reference #244,
above, shows he was of age in 1805. But the lists of
eligible men were made in 1803 and 1804, so James
would not have been included if he was still underage.
This indicates that James Lindsey turned 21 in 1805.

Note: Thomas was not on the 1820
census, but Mary was. Thomas
may have been deceased by 1815.
When Abraham Lindsey deeded
land on Pistol Creek to his daughter
Anna that year, he noted that the
land was adjacent to Mary Lindsey.
Perhaps Mary and her children
lived on the land, waiting until they
were moving (to Tuscaloosa Co.,
AL) to sell it.
For Thomas Lindsey estate there are 5 deeds to Elijah
Pullin dating February 27, 1826 thru November 18,
1826. It appears there were 8 children and wife, Mary:
1. February 27, 1826 - William Lindsay to Elijah
Pullin, his share, father Thomas Lindsey, dec'd.
2. April 1, 1826 - Willis Curry sells 45 acres to Elijah

“Thornton Myers, Joshua Buzbee, and William
Lindsay were active in the Hopewell Baptist Church. Joshua was married to Thornton's daughter, Elizabeth Jane, and William Lindsay was married Thornton's sister Dicie Matilda. Thornton and Joshua served as messengers in the annual Five Mile Creek Baptist Association from Hopewell Primitive Church. Hopewell Church was
dissolved around 1884 leaving them without a home church.”
Note: The marriage year, 1837, was inferred from the
