Horton Family History  by Scott Owens Anrkee@aol.com Updated 8/22/04

1. JESSE4 HORTON II (AMOS3, AMOS2, DANIEL1) was born January 7, 1773 in Hanging Rock, Lancaster District, South Carolina,
and died August 2, 1850 in Pleasant Ridge, Greene County, Alabama. He married (1) BETSY FOWLER January 13, 1798 in Wake County,
North Carolina. She was born Abt. 1778, and died October 22, 1798 in Wake County, North Carolina. He married (2) SARAH ELIZABETH
CHAMBLEE March 15, 1799 in Wake County, North Carolina, daughter of ISAAC CHAMBLEE and LUCRETIA JONES. She was born 1777 in Wake
County, North Carolina, and died March 17, 1862 in Pleasant Ridge, Greene County, Alabama1.

Notes for JESSE HORTON II:

In 1800, the Jesse Horton household in Wake County, NC, consisted of Jesse, Sarah, Jane Emeline, and a young gentleman 16-26
years old, possibly one of Jesse's or Sarah's brothers. At this time Jesse owned no slaves. This same year Jesse served as the
administrator of the estate of Isaac Chamblee his father-in-law, who died intestate that year. Jesse received 36 acres "in right
of his wife."

In 1816 Jesse Horton was taxed for 259 3/4 acres (probably someone else's) plus 919 acres. In 1817 and 1818 he was taxed for
only the 919 acres. In 1819 his taxable acreage was 1,161, as it was in 1820, plus 4 slaves.

In 1821 Jesse was taxed for 1,331 acres and 5 slaves. During this year Jesse served as executor of the estate of his deceased
father Amos Horton (Jr.). According to the will of Amos Horton, written March 28, 1821 and was probated August 18 of that year.
Jesse received "all my lands on the north side of the Road, by his paying Drury Horton $50, and also two negros Barn and Eady."
This will, of which Jesse was executor, was probated in August 1822. In 1822 Jesse was not listed in the tax lists, having moved
to Alabama, but in 1823-25 his brother Hartwell was taxed "for Jesse Horton" several hundred acres of land. Jesse had taken his
slaves to Alabama. According to family sources, Jesse moved his family to Blount County, Alabama, in 1822. His youngest daughter,
Eliza, was born in 1823 there in Blount County. Other Hortons settled in Blount County and Jesse may have simply stayed there
until Sarah delivered and was able to travel to move on to Greene County.

In 1824 the Jesse Horton family, including 8 slaves, moved to Greene County, Alabama, settling in the vicinity of Pleasant Ridge
in the northeastern corner of the county. Jesse appeared on the tax lists of Wake County, North Carolina, until 1822 when he
possibly moved to Blount County, Alabama. In late 1825 Jesse travelled back to Wake County to sell the remainder of his land and
settle his affairs in that state, concluding two land sales in January 1826.

The 1830 Census of Greene County, Alabama, lists Jesse Horton with three sons (Jesse Habbord, 11, William, 18, and John D., 16)
and three daughters (Elizabeth M., Mariah, and MaryAnn Rebecca) with his wife Sarah. Jesse owned 19 slaves at this time.

On December 1, 1830, Jesse acquired 79.87 acres of land in Pleasant Ridge through the Tuscaloosa Land Office. Jesse purchased
320 acres from David Scott and Edward Sims on August 4, 1831 for $1600. On January 10, 1832, he acquired 158.67 more acres nearby.
Jesse gained 40.03 acres through the Tuscaloosa Office on March 30, 1837. Later that year, on August 18, Jesse purchased 235 acres
from Albert, Hamilton, Mary, and Sarah McGowen for $2000.

In 1840 the Jesse Horton household consisted of Jesse, Sarah, William and his wife Marcia, and a boy 5-10 years old, possibly
George Washington Horton, son of Elizabeth and John Henry. Jesse owned 23 slaves this year. On March 2 of this year Jesse
purchased land from his son-in-law George W. Rives, husband of daughter Candice.

On April 21, 1841 Jesse purchased 285 acres from the Achilles Edwards' estate for $1650. In June of 1847 Jesse conveyed through
"natural love and affection" 240 acres along with three Negro slaves: Abe, 24, Harriet, 20, and Esther, 14 to his daughter
Candice, wife of George W. Rives. These were put in a trust, with son John D. as trustee, for the life of Candice. The proceeds
of these properties were to be conveyed to Candice or her heirs. Apparently about this time George and Candice moved to Morehouse
Parish, Louisiana, and Jesse felt some need to provide for her.

By 1850, all the children were gone, and Jesse and Sarah lived on their plantation with 25 slaves, 13 of whom were of age to be
field hands. In the 1850 U.S. Census Agricultural Returns, Jesse Horton is shown with the following, the yearly production for
1849:

Land: 300 acres improved, 360 ac. unumproved, total value $7,980.00. (tot.660a)

Equiptment: $315;

Livestock: 5 horses, 3 mules, 11 milk cows, 4 oxen, 26 other cattle, 35 sheep,

95 swine, total livestock value: $1.120.00

Produce: 2,000 bu corn, 511 bu oats, 18 bales cotton, 50 lb wool, 50 bu peas,

10 bu potatoes, 350 bu yams (sweet potatoes), 150 lb butter, 200 lb

honey.
