Franklin County, North Carolina by Agnes Branch Pearlman In the continuing anempt to present accurate fam,ly group record, for Henry Yarbrough. Sr, and Jr, and their issue, this update to the anicles appearing in Volume R, Nos 3 and 4, i, published. Some relationships appearing in those issues must be revised on the basis of definitive data contained in documents that were not previously available to the editor Because fathers and ,ons so often bestowed the same given names on their issue, it has heretofore been espectally difficult to distinguish between individuals with the same name Among the loose legal papers from Franklin County, North Carolina, now housed at the North Carolina State Archives that were filed following the death in 1812 of Charles Yarbrough are numero1H petitions, one or which proves conclusively that he was the son of Henry, Sr., - not Henry, Jr. From that petition (transcribed in its entirety below), one can identify Charles' siblings as well as several nieces and nephews Stak of Nor/Ii Caro/ma/ S.pl. r­ Frrmldln Co•nty lo wit} /811 To ti.. ..-ipft,/ IM J,,"""' of/ht C-,/ ofPl.,.. and Q,,am, S.ssi<>ttsfi»' the Cow,ty <ifo,esald /he Pe1il!on of C/a100m Cook and F=• hi• w(/<', Joi,,, Ligon arrd Nancy hn w,f~.
