Notes for LEMUEL TYSON:
Lemanuel bought out the inheritance of several of his siblings.. Throughout his life he continued to acquire land and slaves. Before he died he was the owner of the largest plantations in Pitt County, N.C.
When he died some of his children were not of legal age and they were placed under guardianship of William J. Laughinhouse, husband of their aunt, Ann Vines Laughinghouse. The settlement of the estate continued though the years of the Civill War, and the rising value of a child's share dring that period provides and interesting example of the inflation which beset Confederate currency.
