LANDMARK NEWSPAPER OF IREDELL CO., NC dated 1874. Complete article (found and submitted by Sherry Griggs):
*MURDER IN ALLEGHANY COUNTY-- Just as we go to press a letter from Wilkesboro informs us of the killing of
William Wagoner at the house of Jonathan Stamper in Alleghany County, on 3rd ult[?]. Troy Stamper and Milton Stamper
are charged with the homicide, and are now in jail. The difficulty originated in a horse swap. Both parties, and others
present, were drinking. We have not space for fuller particulars." dated: September 12, 1874.
[comments] About the article from the Landmark Newspaper of Iredell county dated 1874, regarding a murder in
Alleghany county involving two sons of Jonathan Stamper, one of which was Troy Stamper... While checking the NC
census today for 1880, I found Troy Stamper alive and well....and obviously not in jail. But the biggest find on this listing
was the birthplace of his child Hiram (b1869) as being in Indiana. His wife Charlotte (b.1840)is also listed as being born
in Indiana. Troy must have been a traveler. Other children were Lauria (b1874 in NC) and son Johnander (b 1875 in NC).
But the plot thickens. Also listed are two children designated as his daughters but with Indian last names. Eljina Hoppop
(b 1862 in NC) daughter and another daughter named Florence Hoppop (b 1871 in NC). How did he get out of the charge
of murdering William Wagoner?

STAMPER DATA FROM THE 1815 ASHE CO. NC TAX LIST,
WITH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FROM THE ASHE COUNTY LAND ENTRIES, 1800-1823,
COMPILED BY SANDRA LAKE LASSEN, 1998
PERMISSION IS GIVEN FOR THIS DATA TO BE COPIED, USED, AND SHARED BY ALL STAMPER RESEARCHERS FOR GENEALOGICAL PURPOSES. NO PERMISSION IS GRANTED FOR COMMERCIAL USE. PLEASE CREDIT SANDRA LAKE LASSEN AS COMPILER.

First a few words of explanation about the data sources. NC Law in 1815 taxed each free white male between the
ages of 21 and 50 "one poll." If no poll is taxed, then the head of family is under 21 or over 50. Free white female
heads of family were not taxed. Some poll takers were more diligent than others; some listed a description of the land
owned by the tax payers and others did not.

A "land entry" is a claim made to the state for vacant or unclaimed land in early pioneer days. If a records search
proved that the land was unoccupied, the land could be purchased. The potential land owner had a year to register
the property and pay for it. Sometimes the potential land owner did not buy the land; therefore, a "land entry" is NOT
the same as a deed. The most valuable land was always along a waterway. In Ashe County, the major waterway is the
broad, ancient, winding New River, which flows north into VA and WV, where it eventually joins the Kanawha. The
originals of the land entries are in the NC Archives in Raleigh, as is the 1815 Ashe Co. tax list. To determine if one's
ancestor actually purchased land, the actual deeds must be checked. Deed records exist for Ashe County from its
founding in 1799.

All of the six Stampers in the 1815 Tax List had many early land entries. I have not attempted to list all of the entries,
just the earliest.
Place names (from the NC Gazetteer):
"Crambury" or "Crambery" Creek is Cranberry Creek, which is formed in eastern Ashe County by a junction of Piney Fork
and Mulberry Creeks and flows northwest into the South Fork of New River.

"Grassy Creek" rises in Grayson Co., VA (which borders Ashe Co.) and flows southeast into Ashe running into the
North Fork of New River. Many pioneer families owned land in both Ashe Co., NC and Grayson Co., VA and
intermarried across the border.

"Meadow Fork" is a creek rising in present day Alleghany Co. (which was part of Ashe until 1859) and flows southwest
joining Laruel Fork Creek to form Mulberry Creek.

"Little River" is in present day Alleghany Co., once part of Ashe County.
ANYONE WANTING A VERY SIMPLE "WATERWAYS OF ASHE" MAP CAN SEND ME A SELF-ADDRESSED,
STAMPED #10 ENVELOPE.
