Notes for John HENDERSON
When [Argeleus Henderson] wrote his will he left his youngest son John out of it. Whatever the cause of the omission Argaleus later wrote a separate document giving John land and a house. As indicated in this deed:

"This indenture made the ninth day of November in the year of our lord one thousand eight hundred and four betwixt (sic) Hercules Henderson of the county of Chatham and state of North Carolina of the part and John Henderson of the county and state aforesaid of the other part witnesseth (sic) that I the said Hercules Henderson have by these present give (sic) unto my son John Henderson the house and plantation whereon he now lives all that part of my deeded land being on the East side of the Meadow Branch lying and being situated on the North side of Brookses (sic) Creek thence North to a post thence West to the first station. My life time reserved as usual on the said land and I the said Hercules Henderson do warrant and defend the said land from any claim or claims from me, my heirs, executor, administrators and assigns to be his lawful right and property and peasably (sic) to enjoy. Whereof I have set my hand and affixed my seal the day and date above written. Signed, sealed and delivered.
