Spartanburg Deeds of 
John and Milly Bullington

SPARTANBURG CO SC DEED 1827-1839 Books U-W

Dower renounced Jan. 11, 1821 Mary G (or Polly) White to Daniel White.

Note:
This deed shows that this Robt White is our Robt Jr, his 
wife Mary G is mentioned and brother Ben White, Daniel 
White is a justice of the peace and to my current knowledge
is not related to our White lineage.  John Bullington is the 
brother in law to Robt & Ben married their sister Mildred.

SPARTANBURG CO SC DEED 1827-1839 Books U-W

(Deed book 'U')
p.253. Page 194-193 1 Dec 1825, John Bullington (Spartanburgh Dist) to Absalom Walker (same), for $650 sold a certain tract in Spartanburgh Dist on Kelso's creek waters of Fairforest . Border: Catharine Smith, Daniel White's a mere branch, Charles James, Robert White. Containing 131 acres more or less, being part of two tracts originally granted, the one to James Smith and the other to Joseph Buffington which was by him Mortgaged to the loan office & by order of the Legislature was sold & bought by James Smith and descended from him to David Lynch by heirship and conveyed by said Lynch to Robert White and from him to me.

Note:
This deed is important because it shows John, Milly (White) Bullington, 
and her brother Robert White involved in a transaction, as John and Milly 
are not found after this transaction, gives us a possible date they left SC for 
Lauderdale AL.

Note:
Before we begin below, please note that there is a
Robert Bullington and wife Mildred Whitehead,
floating around in the Gen world, however, the one
distinguishing factor is, they were not Born in SC.
The Census below clearly show BORN SC, many
a family chart has made the mistake of claiming
our Mildred White Bullington as wife of this Robert
Bullington. Also note that none of the census below
show a Robert Bullington, in the counties where our's
lived. Documentation below clearly ties our Mildred
to John Bullington (see Milly's application for War
of 1812 Grant for land, she is ours... (Saline Co IL)

**John & Milly sold there land in Spartanburg Co SC 29 Dec 1825, probably moved to
Lawrence Co TN, by 1826, in time for to appear on there Tax List, then moved just south across the

Milly remained in Lauderdale into the 1830's before departing for Williamson Co IL.

Notes:
I believe now this 'Sarah A', is the younger daughter of Mildred, born in Ala.
or maybe the Wife of William Bullington.

We do not know the exact birth dates of any of Mildred's children
only abt - Stephen abt 1816, Ben abt 1820, William abt 1826, Robert abt
1818, I found a Robert in Woodford Co 1860 census, living in Eureka Town but
will need to confirm this, I would expect him to be about 42 yrs old, in
1850. Mary was born abt 1821, Newton abt 1823, Susannah abt 1827. The last
three either died of didn't move to IL, can't find anything on them...

Notice the 'B' = black above, obviously, these are Free Blacks, I cannot recall
Blacks prior to 1870 being listed on the Census records. 

Notes2:
Could this be the Sarah A Bullington in the 1850 Census above????

Sarah may have been the daughter of John's brother Robert Bullington Jr???

BEWARE there appears to be mistakes in the family chart below:

"Note" Son Benjamin bought land in Stone Fort 1854 - bordering Saline Co IL.

Total Hsehold=2, Page 21
Twpshp 8 Range 2E - Twnshp 10 Range 2
Stephen Bellington

"Note" Son Stephen bought land in Corinth 1852 - bordering Saline Co IL.

Note:
Look at 1850 census, Stephen is a couple of
doors away from Mildred, I believe he remained
in Williamson Co, Ben, Milly, and Wm moved
to the next county east to Saline Co, which was
even closer to the Ohio River.

Note: 
**Saline County IL is north/east of Williamson Co 
    closer to the Ohio River.

**Melinda is a mistake, is MILDRED (age perfect born 1795)
    and the B S and Wm    living with her could be the same
    Bullington's as in 1850. this census is more in tune to Milly's
    birth year, as census taker were known for mistakes, worthy
    to note here...  Also, BS and Wm's birthdays, fit perfectly...

Note:
Wm born IL? Probably a Census taker error,

First Notes the Sarah A Bullington in the 1850 Census above:
the age is a perfect match, B S Bullington and a Wm and Melinda
(who may be Mildred), are also in Saline county IL together in 1860.
Sarah A Bullington they are showing Born in AL.  I believe that
Robert Bullington and Mildred Whitehead as her parents needs reviewing.
This all assumes that Ben and Wm Bullington are John Bullington's and
Mildred White's children.  John Bullington husband of Milly White, had
parents named Robert Bullington Jr and Susanna Whitehead both of Union
County SC.  John Bullingon who died in Lauderdale AL, had a son Robert
born 1818, I have no information on him after AL. I believe he died, and his
daughter Sarah A Bullington moved and lived with Ben, Wm, Mildred from AL
to Williamson Co IL, and possibly onto Saline Co in 1870.

Notes & Correspondence 
from Clement Rose:

This information comes from a Clement Rose, descendant of a Stephen Bullington below is her response to my query at genforum.com, it has yet to be verified, hopefully, someday soon I will have time to investigate this lead:   It is the first contact I've had with anyone down Mildred's lineage, if it in-fact, it becomes true:

From Clement Rose: (2,3,4 Nov 2000)

Below is a Genforum response from Clement Rose:

1st - Hi Mike.I found some of your Bullington family in Williamson County Ill. in the 1850 Census. My Gr.Grandaunt married Stephen Bullington in Johnson County Ill. Their daughter Beda married Thomas Wilburn 24 Nov. 1883. I have some other things if this is of interest. Clement Rose. cllyrose@aol.com

2nd - Hi Mike. I found Stephen Bullington on Ancestry.com. This led me to Williamson County Ill., the county right next to Johnson County where my Rose family settled.
1850 Williamson County Illinois.
Stephen Bullington 29 farmer b. SC.
Ben Bullington 36 farmer b. SC
William Bullington 24 b. SC
Sarah A. Bullington 18 b. Ala.

3rd - Hi Mike again. I couldn't get it all on the first message. There was also. Mildred Bullington 50 b. SC. All the one mentioned were in Household 51-52. There were also a black family listed with them. Nancy Tabron 46 b.NC.,Berton Tabron 29 b.Ala., Hardin Tabron 18 b.Ala. There is also Johnson County Marriages. Vol.1 1834-1877. S.W. Bullington to E.J.Smith 4 Oct.1863. Wesley Bullington to E.V. Veal 4 Oct. 1863. There is a little more. Hope this helps. Clem Rose  -  END

4th - Mike, the information I passed on to you was given to me by a Bill Todd of Williamson Co. ILL. The info. was indeed for the 1850 Census. Could Sarah A. have been the wife of William? My Ancestor and Stephen Bullington were living in Johnson County in 1870 and 1880. My Ancestor was in Union County Ill. in 1896, I don't know if Stephen was too. I did find a J. Bullington there in the 1900 Census. I think he may have been one of their sons. They had a James and I think one called Jack, a Robert and a Beda. Clement Rose

5th - Hi again Mike. It looks like you got some real good records to work with. My Rose family was also in SC. My Gr.Grandfather Andrew Jackson Rose was born there in 1825. I don't know exactly where. The family moved to TN. shortly after his birth. He moved to Johnson County Ill.sometime in the early 1840s, was married three times, had children with all three wives, a total of 12 or more, and stayed around the county till his death in 1878. Yet, I can make no contact with any kinfolk in Illinois.  As for your Mildred (White) Bullington. You should know it is a female right to be able to shave a year or two off their ages every once in a while.  Also,Stephen Bullington was still in Johnson County Ill. in Nov. 1883. That's when his daughter Beda was married.  Clement Rose. 

6th - Mike, for some reason I got cut off in the middle of my response. So I'll repeat what I was writing. I found Stephen Bullington on Ancestry.com. Two names came up. Stephen, and another with what looks like a nickname. I think it was Buff or something similar. Both were in Williamson County IL. I put in a query to that particular county through 'Genforum.com' and got an answer right away from Mr.Todd. I was trying to find when Stephen may have married my Gr.Grandaunt Elizabeth Jane Rose. She might have been married before she met Stephen, because of the names of S.W. Bullington to E.J. Smith. Not sure, only guessing. All for now. Clement Rose.
