    Notes:

    A Williams family genealogy indicates Anthony Herring, brother of Samuel, married Mary Williams (listed as Mary Herring in John Williams' will of 1745 in Bertie County, NC). An Isle of Wight Co, VA deed of 1724 lists Bridget as the wife of Anthony Herring, and so she was when they sold their VA land on 22 Nov 1740, the same in 1742 when Anthony came to North Carolina. This researcher, among others, believes Mary Williams married Abraham Herring.
    Abraham probably left the Isle of Wight County between 1718 and 1724. The Herrings in 1718 bought 150 acres from Benjamin Joyner on Blackwater Swamp and in 1724, "brother" Anthony sold this parcel where Abraham Herring lived to John Little. Abraham did not surface in Bertie County, NC until 12 years after that sale, 1736, when "brother" John sold him 380 acres on Bear Swamp for 100 L. Three years later Abraham Herring sold this property.
    As of the 1740s, most of Abraham's documented activities are in the Bucklesberry Swamp area, adjoining John Williams, et al. One Herring family researcher says that Abraham served as sheriff of Bertie County. Abraham had his stock mark registered ( a swallow fork in the left ear and a nick in the right ear) at the Bertie county court in Nov 1740.
    On his death, in an account supposedly dated 1744, John Holbrook was paid to cash for going to Neuse after debt that was due there to acquaint the heirs of his death...Note mentions, among others, Abraham Herring. However, in 1749 and Abraham Herring was listed in a deed selling land to Arnold Hopkins, & continued to be listed in Bertie County deeds until 1757, sometimes as a witness.

    Abraham married Mary Williams in 1720 in Bertie County, North Carolina. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
