    Other Events:

    • AFN: NWN0-V3

    Notes:

    John had remained in Ulster Province in the far north of Ireland when his parents emigrated to America. In about 1733, in Coleraine, County Londonderry, John married Rebekah Clark who had been born in that area in about 1720. With their then three young children, John and Rebekah also emigrated to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, purportedly aboard the "VillageBelle", arriving about 1737. They colonized land in Martic Township in southern Lancaster County just a few miles northwest of John's parents.

    In about 1765, John and some of his older sons, along with other Scotish-Irish neighbors, traveled south to North Carolina and bought acreage in old Mecklenburg County (northwest of the present-day city of Charlotte). An abstract, dated 13 May 1765, attesting to the purchase by John Baldrige of the land along Indian Creek and the Catawba River can be found in Tyron-Lincoln County Deeds, Volume 1, Pages 670-671. Three other deeds involving similar purchases or rentals of land in that area by John Baldrige appear on pages 155-159 of Volume 4, Mecklenburg County,North Carolina, Deed Abstracts.

    John returned to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, only to die there in late July 1766 before he could relocate his family to North Carolina. John Baldrige's Last Will and Testament, dated July 15, 1766 and filed for probate on July 31, 1766, was recorded in Will Book "B", Volume 1,Page 448, Official Records of Lancaster County. It is generally considered that John Baldrige was buried in the cemetery of the Chestnut Level Presbyterian Church, although there is no known tombstone there bearing his name.

    John married Rebecca Clark 1733, Coleraine, Ulster, Ireland. Rebecca (daughter of William Clark and Margaret) was born Abt 1720, Coleraine, Ulster, Ireland; died 1 Jul 1823, Belwood, Cleveland County, North Carolina; was buried Knob Creek Cemetery, Belwood, Cleveland County, North Carolina.

    • AFN: JRL2-7G

    Notes:

    After the marriage of Aaron and Rebekah, the spelling for Rebekah is now Rebecca. Rebecca and Aaron Boggs moved with most of the younger Baldrige children to old Mecklenburg County (to what is now Lincoln County -northwest of the city of Charlotte), North Carolina. Rebecca went on to give birth to three Boggs children, giving her a grand total of at least19 (perhaps 21), the last being born 1778 with Rebecca in her late 50's.

    Rebecca Clark Baldrige Boggs died on 1 July 1823 at the age of 103 years old. Her weathered tombstone still stands in the cemetery of Knob Creek Methodist Church, Belwood, in eastern Cleveland County, North Carolina.
