of land in Nansemond Co., VA. A Richard Falk/Faulk owned land on the north side
of the Meherrin River in Chowan Co NC between 1710 and 1720. His will is recorded

township, was settled primarily by French Huguenots.

Notes for JOHN SR. FAULK:
William and John Faulk
purchased land south of the Tar River downstream from the present Rocky Mount
NC in 1740.
1764 he purchased land
on both sides of Little River about a mile above the point where today
Iinterstate 95 crosses the Little River. He built a bridge across Little River
known as Faulk's bridge, probably a toll bridge. It was still shown on the USGA
map of 1904. A concrete bridge crosses the river at this point today but it
appears that a bridge once existed just south of the concrete bridge. In 1769
he gave the land he owned north of Little River to his beloved son Thomas and
in 1780 according to the Johnston County deed book index (the deed book is
missing) gave the land south of the Little River to William Faulk. CBS THINKS
this William Faulk is the same man who moved to the present Fair Bluff NC area
about 1784. --CBS[Untitled tree for book.FTW]

Jonathan Faulk was a
Loyalist soldier during the Revolution.
After the Revolutionary War South Carolina adopted the policy of
forgiving all Loyalist who swore allegiance to the State of South Carolina and
the new United States Government. The attitude of people in Edgefield County
was unforgiving as many Loyalists were killed and their property confiscated.
There is a long document in the Library of Congress in which many Loyalists in
South Carolina made a claim through the English Government for compensation
dues to actions of the Patriots. So Jonathan Faulk went to the north eastern
part of South Carolina where he secured a land grant on the District of Georgetown
on the northeast side of the Little Pee Dee River.
This land wasn't too
far from his cousins Richard and Phillip Faulk who lived in Bladen (now
Columbus Co NC) near the present town of Fair Bluff. One of Richard Faulk's
deeds was witnessed by Jonathan Faulk . Living near Richard Faulk was a family
of Tillmans and married Phoebe Tillman. Their son, John Tillman Faulk, was born
in 1784 in North Carolina, so Phoebe must have decided to have her delivery
near her parents rather in the swamps of the Little Pee Dee Rivervalley. The
area where Jonathan Faulk lived was about as sorry as it comes so Jonathan must
have been looking for a better place.
In 1806, Jonathan
applied for a passport in Wilkinson Co. Georgia. In those days, you had to get
a passport to travel between states. Why
did Jonathan decide to leave Wilkinson County? The answer lies in his son John
Tillman Faulk. On 1 September 1805 John Tillman Faulk shot and killed Mary Horn
in Montgomery County Georgia. The warrant against John Tillman Faulk was sworn
to by Wilson Horn, The Corner's jury found John Tillman Faulk "did kill
the said Mary Horn". But in some way John Tillman Faulk was aquitted by
the court. John Tillman Faulk had been a school teacher in Montgomery County,
but it must have been time for him to leave.
So the Jonathan Faulk
family went through the Creek Indian nation to Natchez Mississippi and west to
Jonesville. Jonathan and family, including John Tillman Faulk who was now
married to a fourteen year old Martin girl from Natchez, settled on land one-
and-three-tenths miles south of Troyville (now Jonesville) LA, on the west bank
of the Black River. John Faulk owned a
plantation there known as Llamanda Plantation.
Jonathan Faulk died in
1811 and was buried in a family cemetery.
His estate was administerd by John Dyson and John T. Faulk.

AN OVERVEW OF JOHN TILLMAN FAULK
In my (Charles B.
Schweizer) (CBS) opinion John Tillman Faulk was born 26 December 1784 in then
Bladen now Columbus County NC near present town of Fair Bluffs. Other records
indicate he was born in 1782 and 1785 but this is not unusual, people didn't
remember. He was probably born at his materal grandparents home where he could
receive medical care. We next find him charged with murder in Montgomery Co GA
where he was acquitted in October 1805.
Considering the
evidence (see below) his acquittal is a miracle. In the trial John Tillman
Faulk was listed as a Schoolmaster so he must have received a good education as
he grew to manhood. The following year, 1806, his father Jonathan Faulk living
in nearby Wilkinson County GA applied for a passport to travel through the
Creek Indian Nation . The application states the witnesses knew Jonathan Faulk
going on two years which means he must have arrved about 1804.

In 1807 John Tillman
married Elizabeth Martin, a fourteen year old girl, in Natchez. He was twenty
three years old but the marriage was a success. About 1810 Jonathan Faulk and
John Tillman Faulk settled on a plantation on the west bank of the Black River
about a mile south of present Jonesville LA. John Tillman Faulk engaged in
making salt from the Sabine River. On one of his trips to market, a robber gang
on the Black River extracted a toll on his load of salt.
John Tillman Faulk
enlisted in the Louisiana Militia for the War of 1812 and was one of twelve men
wounded in the Battle of New Orleans. For this he drew a pension the rest of
his life and it probably helped him financially.
In 1816 he moved up the
Black and Ouachita River to buy land south of present Monroe LA. He owned quite
a bit of land before he died in 1871. He is buried in the Faulk family cemetery
at Logtown also known as Fondale where he lived. He had four wives and fourteen
children. His last wife was Kesiah Faulk daughter of 'Black' James Faulk and
Elender Penelope Shepherd 'Nellie', a widow of Francis S Howard, and his fourth
cousin. He and his descendants have always been active members of the Methodist
Church.
VETERAN OF THE WAR OF
1812
During the War of 1812
and Louisiana threatened by a British Invasionin late 1814, John T. Faulk
became part of Declouet's Regiment, Louisiana Militia in Catahoula Parish as a
private in Captain R.L. Sackett's Co., 15th Reginemt. The company made it to the
Louisiana capital in time to participate in the famed battle of New Orleans.
Faulk was wounded by a gun shot through the left thigh and was discharged 3 Feb
1815. By the Louisiana Legislative act of 7 Jan.1819, he received a pension of
$8.00 per month. Later with the passage of several Federal Statutes awarding
pension and bounty lands for veterans of US military service, he applied for
his rights. With his application papers, he included an affidavit from fellow
soldier John Carroll who stated that their unit was marched below New Orleans
near English Turn on the Mississippi River in October and remained there until
24 Dec. 1814. A large portion of the British army landed opposite them on the
east side. A party of British took up quarters in a big frame house on the
night of 6 Jan. 1815. Capt. Sackett called for 25 men to cross the river and
give a fight to the enemy in the house. John T. Faulk and John Carroll were two
of the 25 volunteers.
Faulk was sent to spy
out the position. When he reported, he was sent a second time with orders to
shoot a supposed sentinel. As he tried to comply with the order, be was seen by
his enemy and got himself shot. He was so near the enemy fire his clothes
caught fire from ensuring shots exchanged between friend and foe. One source
stated that John Carroll carried Faulk to safety. However, another source noted
that Faulk was wounded during the nightbattle of 28 Dec. 1814 and was found by
John Kitterlin who "took himup in his arms" (Faulk being a small man)
and removed him within the lines in safely. Mr. Faulk never knew his preserver
until 1842, wherein Mr. Ketterlin stopped at his house on his way up (from
Catahoula Parish) to the land office at Monroe to secure his land. While there,
upon talking over past events and recurring to the battle of New Orleans, the
discovery was made of their former opportune meeting, when their delight was
mutual, and both brave men clasped hands in life-long friendship.
It was later told that
Faulk's wound in the left thigh from a musketball was so large that a surgeon
drew a silk handkerchief through it to clean out the powder. From that injury,
he was crippled for the remainder of his life. He as all others of his unit was
honorably discharged on orders of General Andrew Jackson at their encampment
below New Orleans.
He is listed in
Ancestory.com's Military Records: War of 1812 Muster Rolls as a Private in
Declouet's Regiment, Louisian Militia. He is also listed in the Alphabetical
Index to Veterans of the War of 1812 by the Louisiana Genealogical and
Historical Society. There is another listing in the War of 1812 Muster Rolls
for a Private George Faulk from Baker's Regiment of Louisiana Militia. George
Faulk was a son of Luke Faulk, a line that moved from Pensacola Florida to
southwest Louisiana and whose relationship to the Monroe Faulks is unkown.

LETTER OF JOHN TILLMAN
FAULK TO WIFE KESIAH FAULK
Kesiah Faulk complained
about the cllimate at Logtown so she took her children and went to visit her
sister, Lucretia Faulk wife of William Kendrick Faulk, in Athens Texas. She
never returned to Ligtown and isburied in the same cemetery as Lucretia in
Athens Texas. It is reported that this letter is mounted on parchment and its
page 2 cannot be xeroxed and has to be read through the back with a strong
light.
They following is
courtesy of Karen Everritt, West Monroe, Louisiana:
This is a copy of
letter written by J. (John) T. Faulk: 'La. Ouachita 18th of November
1866..." Why this long silence between you and me wife and children? I
feel this day quite well in health and I now see fit to tell you from whence
our family sprang and of the stock of people from which we came. We came from
Europe according to the words of our forefathers. In 1671, there was a province
on the river Rhine, it lies between Germany and France; there was a large
number of that province, that protested against the Roman Catholic order of
religion who were called by way of reproach Hughenot Protestants."
"The Pope of Rome
ordered them all to be exterminatd and on St.Bartholomews night, twelve
thousand of the Protestant Hughenots were treacherously massacred and many more
hunted up and tortured to death. All that refused to renounce the Protestant
faith and return to the Romish mode of worship, were put to death. The
persecution became so terrible against the Protestant Hughenots, that quite or
nearly all were destroyed from the Rhine province. A number of hard battles
were fought. Finally the Hughenots found their case hopeless and many of them
fled to America to find a land of peace and quiet."
"The ship that
brought them landed at Wilmington on the coast of North Carolina, which was
then only a few houses, now a city of N.C. Well with that Ship's company, there
were three brothers, names thus- James Faulk, Right Faulk, and Melzer Faulk.
These three brothers all raised families and their familes, no doubt raised
families. Now from these three brothers sprang a numerous number and have given
the name to not a few. I have seen many of the names and all that I have seen,
if he had been careful to inform himself all can trace their origin back to the
Hughenot brothers. And now my boys you need not be ashamed of your origin. I am
satisfied that all the Faulks now in America, sprang from one or the other of
these three brothers. The record says that all of the Faulks who were in the
Rhine province were put to death, but these three brothers: all for the sake of
Protestant Christian faith. Mind you, these protestants were of the Lutheran
faith. Luther was the first successful reformer in his time: and after the dark
ages of the world."
"Now in conclusion,
allow me to admonish and beg of you, to not fail to make sure work for the
salvation of your souls. Pray earnestly to God to enlighten your understanding,
read often the Holy Bible and testament. They will point you out the way to
heaven. Read them to your mother, brother and sister, the same I say to all of
you. Let us try to meet in heaven, Shall we know each in that happy place? Yes,
surely we shall be made known to each other it would give me much delite to see
you but if you will not come to see me we shall not meet in this world for I am
too feebel to undertake the journey to you. Tell me, do you keep any or all of
the balck people with you and if so on what terms do they stay with you? Do you
give them a share of the crop or do you pay monthly wages to them? I say keep
them if you can fairly. Tell me does your grandmother yet live and how is her
health? Tell me of your Aunt Jane and hers, how they are doing? Tell of your
Uncle Kendrick of him and his. Have you yet a school near you? /s/ J T Faulk To
Keziah and I will fill this blank the second of Nov 1866. Thetwenty sixth of
this month Jonathan is my birthday. I do wish you could be with me on the
twenty sixth of this month to eat a birthday dinner with me. Can it be soe?
Rite to me and let me know how you arfefaring and what you are doing and what
your prospects are? Tell me what you intend to do. Tell me do you keep the mill
and gin in working order or has it gone to decay? I hope not, I paid much money
to William Faulk for it and the land. Take good care of the land and cause it
to pay you well".
CBS Comment: Dispite
what John Tillman Faulk wrote no one has been able to substantiate the story of
the three Faulk brothers from the Rhineland, the area around Wilmington NC was
a wilderness inhabited by indians and there is no Huguenot record of these
three brothers. The Faulks in Athens Texas laughed at James Jonathan Faulk's
book saying 'CousinJimmie' wanted very badly to be a member of the Huguenot
Society but was unable to do so.
CBS Comment: The
references listed under Jonathan Faulk are also applicable to John Tillman
Faulk. References: Carol Ann Lane, 880 San Pedro Ave, Carol Gables FL 33156
wrote 24 Sep 1990, Your letter said that you had been to the old Faulk farm. Do
you mean Belmont in Ouachita Parish? If you do, I have an old survey done by a
DAR chapter in the area (the Logtown cemetery) of that cemetery. Many of those
graves have been vandalized. The road is still in the same place, but many of
the markers are no longer there, so the survey made by the DAR is quite
valuable in my opinion. Buried there is John T Faulk. His tombstone reads 'Born
in Bladen County, North Carolina December 26, 1784 - November 5 1871 died in
Ouachita Parish, Louisiana'. Very truly yours, /s/ Carol Ann Lane
EXTRACT OF LETTER OF
jOHN TILLMAN FAULK TO JAMES J FAULK
Logtown Post Office,
Ouachita LA Sept 1 1867
"Mind this place
is my residence and the same place that I have lived on for the last 33 years
and the same place you and Alfred were born on. I suppose (Al)fred has to work
now in the field, well his father worked in the field before he was born, yea
and I lived better before I ever owned slaves. They have been a curse to the
South." J T Faulk
OUACHITA PARISH LAND
RECORDS
On Oct 23 and 30 OF
1967 Fannie Faulk Munholland and I, Nell HayesFaulk, researched the records in
the Clerk of Court's office in Ouchita Parish. We found records that John T and
Aquilla Faulk (brothers) bought 400 arpents (an arpent was a little less than
an acre) of land lying on the east side of the Ouachita river on August 23,
1815 for the sum of $1,200 from Felicity, widow Lamy, now the wife of John R
Dewitt.(Conveyance Book D page 151). I counted 87 tranactions made by John
TFaulk.
JOHN TILLMAN FAULK
HONORED
A talk given 9 April
1994 at gravemarking ceremony at Faulk Cenetery, Logtown, Ouachita Parish,
Louisiana, just south of Monroe, on the Ouchita River by Mrs Gene Flourney
Stack. The ceremony honoring John Tillman Faulk, a War of 1812 veteran at the
Battle of New Orleans, was sponsored by the Govenor William C C Claiborne
Chapter, US Daughters of 1812. A bronze marker placed by John T Faulk's grave
was unveiled and dedicated. Over 55 descendants and friends were present.
Excerpts from Mrs
Stack's talk. My grandfather left it (letter of John T Faulk to son James
Jonathan Faulk) in his papers and my Mother, Mary Faulk Flourney, inherited it
and now it has come down to me, and I treasure it highly. I keep it in the old
Faulk secretary along with the old Faulk books which have always been kept in
this secretary. Of course many of them bear other names-- such as Rush,
Williams, Turnley, Morris, those who have married into our branch of the Faulk
family. Some of the books have old flowers pressed into them, old ribbons, newspaper
clippings. There has been no room in the secretary for any other books for over
80 years so when I open the glass doors of the secretary I go into books that
the Faulks have read for over 150 years. These would not be all of the Faulk
books just the ones that our branch of the family has held onto and added to
down through the generations.
A fourth source of
information came from DeBow's Review, Vol 12 of 1852. This gives an account of
John T Faulk as an early settler in Catahoula Parish and tells of his service
in the War of 1812. adapted from
Descendents of Richard Faulk, by Richard Faulk.

According to Charles
B. Schweizer, who is probably the primary Faulk family researcher, G.W.'s
father, James Faulk, was killed in the Civil War. G.E.,
went to Atlanta to sell newspapers to raise money for the family. He
became a telegrapher and was stationmaster at Bay Minette, AL.
On March 25, 1875,
G.W. married Delia E. Guy. The marriage
was performed by Edward Robinson, Minister of the Gospel. (The transcription of the Baldwin County
Marriages records incorrectly reads the handwritten record as "Delia E. Grey".) Their family grew to three soon after with
the birth of their first son, Henry, in 1876.
Carrying on the Faulk family tradition of large families, Henry was soon
followed by six other little Faulks.
G.W. and Delia settled
in Bay Minette, AL, where he worked first as a telegrapher and later as the
stationmaster for the railroad. Delia's
brother, Ransom Guy, lived with them for a while.
There was a building
boom in the late 1800s, and lots of money to be made in the lumber and timber
business. The small town of Leakesville
in Green County, Mississippi, had become a bustling rairoad hub. G.W. left Delia to care for the children, and
went there to set up a sawmill with his friends E.W. Christian from Virgnia and
J.W. Craft. E.W. and G.W. boarded at the
home of _________ while the business became established. On August 22, 1895, they incorporated as the
Faulk-Craft Lumber Company, with $40,000 in capital stock. Their charter was amended on January 29,
1900, changing the name to the Faulk-Christian Lumber Company. By now they had built a standard guage,
30-lb. relay rail railroad to transport their lumber. G.W. was the general manager of the company
and E.W. was a salesman.
Delia and the children
joined G.W. in Leakesville, where they became quite prominent members of the
community. Their son, Everett, became
the town doctor and his own son later filled the same position. James Faulk, the third son of G.W. and Delia,
owned the town newspaper until he moved to Meridian to become the managing
editor of a publishing company there.
Unfortunately, their daughter, Ruby, died in Leakesville at the age of
only 16. That left Frances, known as
Fannie, their only surviving daughter.

Frances Elizabeth
Delia Faulk was born in Eliska, AL, formerly known as Mount Pleasant. She moved with her family to Leakesville in
Greene County, Mississippi sometime between 1900 and 1905. Her first marriage, to Lyman R. Priester,
took place in Leakesville on January 17, 1905.
They had two sons who died shortly after birth: Joseph Everett Priester, who died at birth on
May 27, 1907, and Princeton Priester, whose date of birth and death is
unknown. Joseph is buried in the
Magnolia-McLeod Cemetery in Greene County.
The inscription on his tombstone reads:
"Joseph Everett
Priester, May 27 1907, son of Lyman R.
Priester and Fanny Delia Priester, daughter of George W. Faulk and Christiann
Odelia Faulk"
Frances Faulk's second
marriage was to John Henry "Jack" Stewart, whom she met through her
father. Her father knew Jack because he travelled as a salesman for
his father's lumber companies in
Michigan. Divorce was a scandal,
especially in a religious family like the Faulks, and Frances listed herself as
a widow on the 1910 Census for Gulfport.
Frances and Jack were married on June 23, 1910, according to the family
Bible. They bought a house at 133 King
St. in Jacksonville, FL, and began their
family. When Frances' father died in
1914, her mother, Delia, moved in with them.
