List of Children for George and Margaret
The author of this report is very adamant to the reader, please do not use any list of children composed and published from 1900 to present, unless such information is validated with an Archival Level Document and would supersede the list of children authorized by John Plott and Elias Plott, which there is not such a document. I have seen blatantly wrong information on the internet and published in community books. Please note that none of George and Margaret’s children had middle names. We are to use the list of children as written and authorized by John and Elias Plott. Period!
I have been asked why do I think that the list of children was written in chronological order from first born to last born. Again, I give credence to John and Elias Plott that they submitted their siblings’ names, aka the children of George and Margaret Plott, for factual legal proceedings. The list of George and Margaret Plott’s children includes some of the grandchildren; however, I want to pause to acknowledge the accuracy of this list of children. It is true that I have not found each of the children and grandchildren listed; however, if given enough time and due diligence, each name should be found. A couple of the daughters proceeded George in death; ergo, their lives were cut short. However, documentation of their children is being found. I regret that all of the grandchildren were not listed; however, I appreciate that this list was written and that it was recorded in the N.C. Archives. The staff at the N.C. Archives said, “That to have such a documented list is rare; ergo, we should be thankful.” Note: The circa birth years were calculated based on birth years known. I allowed two-ish years between pregnancies and birth. Using the list as chronological first born to last born, George and Margaret Plott's children were:
(1) Mary Plott (c. 1762 to c. 1811-1814, recorded on the 1810 census, but she died before her father, who died in 1815). It has been reported that she was born in Berks County, Pennsylvania and baptized at Moselem Church in 1763. She married John Campbell, Sr. (c. 1755 to c. 1807-1809, he was not recorded on the 1810 census). Both died in Lincoln County, North Carolina. Children: George Campbell married Elizabeth - maiden name needs to be confirmed, Daniel Campbell married Rosena Willis, John Campbell, Jr. - History needs to be confirmed, Andrew Campbell - History is unknown, Mary Polly Campbell married James Wilson, and Robert Henry Campbell married Leah Lutz.
(2) Sophia Margaret Plott (c. June-July 1764 to c. 1814 when Anthony became an orphan). It has been found that she was born in Berks County, Pennsylvania and baptized at St. Peter's Reform Church. She was named after her sponsor, Sophia Frauenfelder. She married John Jarrett, Sr. (c.1766 to c. prior 1812, according to Cabarrus County, North Carolina Pleas and Quarter Sessions). Both died in Cabarrus County, North Carolina. Children: John Jarrett, Jr. married Susannah Russell, William Jarrett married Hannah Miller-Seavers, and Anthony Jarrett married Mary Polly Rogers. The sons moved to Arkansas and lived in the same community as their Uncle Daniel listed below.
(3) John Plott, Sr. (March 19, 1768 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina to January 18, 1844 {Administration Bond dated February 5, 1844}). He married first Isabella Bigger (c. 1772 to c. 1796) on June 3, 1793 (no children) and second Sara Lucinda Gilliam (September 19, 1779 to c. April 16, 1830) on March 6, 1799. All three died in Cabarrus County, North Carolina. They could be buried in Cold Water Lutheran Church Cemetery, Cabarrus County, North Carolina.

Walker, Hiram Barnard Plott married Eliza Phillips and Victoria West, Sarah Plott married - History is unknown, Henry Plott married Sarah Motley, Jack Plott - History is unknown. (Some family genealogists report that Jack was a nickname for the above listed son Jack. In 1928, James Iverson Plott recorded a son Jack. At this time, until fully documented, Jack remains on the list of children.), and Allison Hartville Plott married Parabell Leet.
(4) Elizabeth Plott (c. 1769 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina to c. 1827) married John Adams, Sr. (c. 1769 to c. 1827). John Adams, Sr. was recorded on an 1826 Twiggs County, Georgia tax list. They are presumed to have died in Twiggs County, Georgia. They were both dead before 1830. Children: George Adams married Name Not Documented, Henry Adams married Millie Alewine, David Adams - Unknown Name of First Wife and Darcus Mercer, John Adams, Jr. married Nancy Ellis, Daniel Adams married Elizabeth Ellis, Obadiah Adams married Elizabeth McRae, Bennett Adams married - Unknown Name, Margaret Adams married Henry Swindler, and Catherine Adams married Jas. A. Rooks. They lived in Newberry, South Carolina and counties close to Macon, Georgia; southwestern Georgia.
(5) Henry Plott (October 10, 1770 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina to November 1, 1837 {Estate Settlement November, 1837}) married Lydia Osborne (October 19, 1776 to November 16, 1857) on November 7, 1796.

She married first Robert Lee (c. 1770 to c. after August 7, 1820) on February 26, 1794 in Cabarrus County, North Carolina. The bondsman was her father, George Plott.

Klutts, Elias Lee married Catherine Hilock and Mary Polly Moony, Margaret Lee married James C. Hannon and James Eagle, Culpepper Lee married Mary Polly Ferguson, Lucinda Lee married Henry S. Gorman, and James I. Lee married Mahala Huie. No known children with Mr. Baugh.
(7) Elias Plott (c. 1776 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina to c. November 1844) married first Charity Conrad (c. 1780 to 1834) on September 24, 1801. He married his second wife Margaret Kelly (c. 1796 to c. 1855) on April 10, 1835. All three died in Iredell County, North Carolina and were buried in Troutman Cemetery.

(8) Isaac Plott (c. 1778 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina to c. 1832) married - Unknown Name. Died in Cabarrus County, North Carolina. Census reports suggests that Isaac may have married twice and could have had four sons and two daughters. Candidate children: calculating for first wife - Hannah Plott married Robert McCommon, William Plott married Sarah Rosana Funderbrugh (Vanderburg), Daniel Plott married Leah Shank, and George M. Plott married Margaret Wilkinson; then, calculating for second wife, possibly Mary Polly Winecroff-Rumple, Mary M. Linny Plott married Nathan Mitchel Clark, Elias H. Plott married Mary A. Unknown Maiden Name and Sarah Ann Huffstetler, and Milton Plott - History is unknown. No proof on the parentage or order of births.
(9) Daniel Plott (c. 1780 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina to c. 1842 -1850) married Frances Unknown Maiden Name (c. About 1793 to August 23, 1883). About 1813-1815, they married in the area of Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Daniel was most likely buried in Randolph County, Arkansas. Frances, also known as Fannie, was buried in Sipe (pronounced ‘Seep’) Springs, Texas with the marker inscribed, “Wife of Daniel Plott”. Children: Mariah Louisa Plott married Robert B. Mock, Culpepper P. Plott married Terressa Garrett, Unknown Daughter Plott, Parnesa Plott married George W. Creath, Vernetta Plott married Solomon Eldridge, Caroline Plott married Charles Creath and John Newton Marshall, Elias Plott married Elizabeth Cranford, and Thalia Plott did not marry.
Technically, we do not know the exact year that George and Margaret set up home in North Carolina; however, George Plott purchased the Cold Water & Dutch Buffalo Creeks property from the Castors on “the fourth Day of November in the year of our Lord one Thousand seven Hundred and sixty seven...”, it is presumed that John, Elizabeth, Henry, Catherine, Elias, Isaac and Daniel were born in Mecklenburg/Cabarrus County, North Carolina. This means that Mary and Sophia could have been born from Pennsylvania to North Carolina. During this time period, it was common for people to live on the property that they were purchasing and/or claimed for a land grant prior to the legal paperwork being completed. This could take many months. It is not specifically known when George Plott gave the Castors payment for the property to when the deed was actually signed.
I pause here to mention that I have seen family trees and books list that George and Margaret had sons named George, David, and/or George David. Unfortunately, these male names are being added by folks, who are not verifying dates and ages of these men. George and David were sons of the above listed fifth (5th) son Henry, who married Lydia Osborne. Henry mentions these two sons along with his other children in his Last Will and Testament.
I further want to pause and talk about family trees for a Mary Margaret Plott, born circa 1775 in Somerset, Pennsylvania, who eventually married John Huffman. She was not a daughter of George and Margaret Plott of North Carolina. NO! This is an error. Think about it for a moment, George and Margaret were living in North Carolina in 1767. Why would they travel back up to Pennsylvania, give birth to a daughter, leave her to be raised in Pennsylvania, while they return to North Carolina and continue a family. NO! Mary Margaret Plott, who married John Huffman was not a daughter of George and Margaret Plott of North Carolina. Mary Margaret Plott was from a Pennsylvania Plott line. Families that are related to Mary Margaret Plott, who married John Huffman need to proceed to researching her true Pennsylvania parents. It is an insult to Mary Margaret Plott, who married John Huffman, to link her to wrong parents. Please give honor to Mary Margaret Plott, who married John Huffman and find her true parents.
As already read above, George Plott has pledged himself to be a good citizen of the newly formed United States and to the State of North Carolina by taking part in local issues by signing the petition being sent to the North Carolina General Assembly. In 1790, the first census was recorded, and George declared his name George Plott in the Mecklenburg/Cabarrus County home with 3 males under 16, 3 males 16 and over, 3 white females, total of 9 household members. On the 1800 census Lincoln County home, the George Plott family declares 2 males under 10, 2 males 16 thru 25, 1 male 45 and over, 1 female 45 and over, total of 6 household members. On the 1810 census Capt. Clines District, Lincoln County home, the George Plott family declares 1 male 10 thru 15, 1 male 45 and over, 1 female 45 and over, total of 3 household members.
