J.L. Tabron purchases a lot.

Deed book 68, page 105, Wilson County Register of Deeds Office, Wilson.

On 3 May 1904, barber Joshua L. Tabron purchased at auction a parcel of land “on the road leading from the Wilson and Tarboro road [Herring Avenue/N.C. 42?] to the Old Plank road [Nash Street/Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway] via Mrs. S.B. Lipscomb‘s place.” (Pender Street? Why not name it, if so?) The land had belonged formerly to Tabron’s mother, Edmonia Taborn, and others.

  1. The Tabrons are my family. I read this to my mother. Her father is William Lemon Tabron. We are so overjoyed to find this. She is going to study this to add to our family tree. I called her yesterday to ask about our ancestors of the Lumbee Tribe. And that question led us here. Thank you so much for all of your hard work.
