Nowell Burton was born ca. 1690
Son of Robert and Mary (Nowell) Burton
Name has aslo been spelled Noell.
This is NOT Hutchins Burton. Hutchins is his brother.
The will of Nowell Burton was dated July 31, 1766 and probated October 13, 1766, in Mecklenburg (WILL BOOK 1, 29)
In the will he names the sole executor as his son Hutchins Burton and mentions his other children but he does not mention his wife Judith so it is assumed that she had passed away before him. Nor, does he mention his son Captain Noel Burton who had died in Mecklenburg in 1763.
The appraisal of the personal estate of Nowell amounted to £15-10-6d (Mecklenburg Will Book 1, 32)
Evidently the testator had divided up his other lands between his elder sons before he made his will. John Burton of Cumberland, his eldest son acted as agent in the division of the lands.
