My people migrated from Gandville county Nc in the 1830 and 1840. My Great great grandfathers names were Lewis and Jeremiah Anderson. They both homesteaded land in Vigo county in 1835 and 1838. By 1889 Jeremiah had 812 acres which he divided among his heirs. One of them was my Great Grandmother Omey Anderson Tyler They established schools and Churches In Lost Creek Township Vigo county In. Other family names were Archers,Chavis,Roberts,Stewart,Trevans, Tyler and Pettiford. I have learned that the Andersons were some the first free blacks in Grandvile County. I now live in Charlotte and would like any information you give me.

A few mbrs of my family along with myself have traced our roots back extensively. Im sitting watching this documentary called African American African Lives 2. So I typed the name Pettiford again and came across you. Can I ask why you would research my family?

My Granddaddy was Samuel Caudle and great granddaddy was Limuel Caudle who is listed as Indian in Hollister/Halifax County.I wanted to correct you it was listed as mulatoo because they were black and Indian mixed bloods because of the quadroon law (Jim Crow Law)for census during that time they did not list anyone of black ancestry as Indian but mulatto. There are two different sets of Caudles and both are related to Jhon Haywood Caudle but all are of Indian ancestry.<BR/>CAUDLE FAMILY MEMBERAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750703629968856769.post-60939023736110724392007-06-23T13:14:00.000-05:002007-06-23T13:14:00.000-05:00Unfortunately, I have no information on these spec...Unfortunately, I have no information on these specific individuals, but I've seen the Caudill surname in conjuntion with a lot of the Chavis and Bass family papers throughout my research, usually as a witness bondsman in a marriage, that type of thing. I'll try and do some digging on them, but it could be a while since I'm still in school and the next session of summer classes starts in 2 days.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04437340068078551266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750703629968856769.post-65730254493346724142007-06-22T18:00:00.000-05:002007-06-22T18:00:00.000-05:00Erin,It's interesting that you mention this 1771 P...Erin,<BR/>It's interesting that you mention this 1771 Petition, because it has been something I have looked at quite a lot over the years, too. I have interests in several of the names on the list, but this is the first time that I have actually heard from anyone else that they thought that the 2 CAUDILLs were probably black. It is something I have been trying to determine myself for some time because my 3rd ggrandather was JOHN HAYWOOD CORDLE/CAUDLE who was born in 1821 Warren Co., listed as a free mulatto in all of the census records. There are no records of any CAUDLE/CORDLE/CAUDILL, etc. in Warren Co. prior to 1850 when my ggrandfather first appears living with his EVANS in-laws, yet I have found that all of the people of color with the surname found in Warren & the surrounding counties afterwards, were all descended from JOHN H. CAUDLE & MARY POLLY EVANS. I wonder if you have found anything else the 2 CAUDILLs in the 1771 Petition?DWilliamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12839369314085404694noreply@blogger.com
