John Welborn is the seventh child born to William Welborn and his wife Ann Crabtree in Kingsville, Baltimore County, Maryland. John Welborn and Ann lived in northeastern Randolph County, North Carolina. John married his neighbor Sarah York, daughter of Semore York, from the Sandy Creek Baptist Church Community of northeastern Randolph County, North Carolina in 1777.
John Welborn and Sarah York had a family of twelve children:
1. William Welborn
2. Ann Welborn
3. Enoch Welborn
4. Isaac G. Welborn
5. Martha Welborn
6. John Welborn, Jr.
7. Sarah Welborn
8. Elizabeth Welborn
9. Elias Welborn
10. James Welborn
11. Davis Welborn
12. Jesse York Welborn
There is a different contemporary Revolutionary War Captain John W. Welborn (1752 NC - 1835 NC) who married Jane McGee FAG memorial #79085218. He is buried in the North Western section New Market Township, Randolph County, North Carolina in the Welborn Cemetery. These two men are often confused by researchers but are from two different Welborn families.
Colonel John Welborn was a Revolutionary War Veteran who is alleged to have been at the Guilford Court House Battle. The Battle of Guilford Court House was a battle fought on March 15, 1781, at a site which is now in north Greensboro, the county seat of Guilford County, North Carolina. This battle was near the end of the American Revolutionary War about 25 miles north from where John lived in Randolph County. Following this battle British General Cornwallis marched his troops through eastern Randolph County ravaging the county side and the farms for food and taking reprisals against the citizens.

I found something else pretty critical. The will of Thomas Welborn of Guilford County, North Carolina dated 1778 lists a John Welborn as his eldest son - Semore York is a witness to the will. Looking at someone who had Jesse York's bible, it appears their research shows the father of John Welborn as this Thomas Welborn whose will I am pointing you to and then Samuel Welborn as the next generation listed in that doctor's bio. There might have been one generation missing of this Thomas which makes senses because it said he was the 10th lineal descendant and I was only counting 9. Thomas of Guilford County, North Carolina would make the missing 10th generation. Also remember Sarah York Welborn Cowan dies in Guilford County, North Carolina as well. It is just north of Randolph County, North Carolina.
