MONTGOMERY COUNTY, NC - HISTORY - The Regulators

The Regulators (excerpted from the Montgomery Co., History, Vol. 2)

In 1765-1770 colonists in North Carolina had great hardship. Most had arrived without funds. Hard money was hard to get and a system of bartering for goods was used instead. During this period, Governor Tryon wanted to be a king in America and nearly bankrupted the state, building a castle in New Berne. A tax stamp was imposed
by the Royal Government and in addition, Tryon imposed his own tax to pay for his palace. There was corruption everywhere--in land grant offices, public office and the courts. The colonists were shamefully exploited. Cash was demanded for all taxes, fees and fines. In an attempt to correct these evils, the colonists formed the Regulator movement. It was an attempt to legally correct some of the government relations hips and dealings and give the colonists a chance to build a life. Tryon regarded this as rebellion and used cannons on them at a battle at Alamance.

During this period, the Regulators presented numerous petitions, letter and advertisements. A man signing was laying his head on the chopping block--even so, they continued to petition and to sign.

ANSON PETITION

In 1769, a petition was presented with 17 demands covering their grievances-- land grant irregularities, improper tax collection, confiscation of property, injustices in court, dishonest court officials, etc.
The 17th demand was:
"17. That Doctor Benjamin Franklin or some other known Patriot be appointed to represent the unhappy state of this Province to His Majesty, and to solicit the several Boards in England."

Dated October ye 9th 1769.

ANSON Co. NC REGULATORS

At the Battle of Alamance on 16 May 1771, the militia under the command of Royal Governor William Tryon defeated approximately 2,000 Regulators. It may never be possible to identify all of the Regulators. Many have been lost to history. Of the six who were hanged at Hillsborough after the battle, the names of two are no longer known.

Notes:

Maj. Lewis Burwell II
Hon. Lewis Burwell (1652-~1710) was the son of Maj. Lewis Burwell and Lucy Higginson, born circa 1652. He was married twice, first to Abigail Smith (11 Mar 1656/57 - 12 Nov 1692, cousin of Nathaniel Bacon), daughter of Anthony Smith and Martha Bacon, 1672 at Gloucester Co., Virginia and second to Martha Lear, daughter of Col. John Lear.He resided at King's Creek, York Co., Virginia. He resided at Carter's Creek, Gloucester Co., Virginia. He was a governor of the College of William and Mary in 1702. He was a member of Council between 1702 and 1711 at Virginia. he died circa 1710. He is the namesake of "Burwell's Bay" in Isle of Wight County This bay was originally called Warascoyack Bay until he acquired significant land upon its shores.

The Burwells (known as the Burls among Virginians) were among the First Families of Virginia in the Colony of Virginia. John Quincy Adams once described the Burwells as typical Virginia aristocrats of their period: forthright, bland, somewhat imperious and politically simplistic by Adams' standards. In 1713, so many Burwells had intermarried with the Virginia political elite that Governor Spotswood complained that " the greater part of the present Council are related to the Family of Burwells...there will be no less than seven so near related that they will go off the Bench whenever a Cause of the Burwells come to be tried." The Family was closely associated with the Fairfield Plantation, Gloucester County, Virginia, but several Burwells also built other famous Virginia plantations. Lewis Burwell III built the Kingsmill Plantation's manor house beginning in the 1730s. A few years later, Carter Burwell built Carter's Grove immediately to the east in what became the modern day Grove Community. Several place names such as Burwell's Bay in Isle of Wight County, Virginia are named after the Burwells. Lewis Burwell "Chesty" Puller, (aka Chesty Puller) is a war hero (from West Point, Virginia) takes his name from three generations of Lewis Burwells who had a large influence on early Virginia. The Burwell family of Virginia originally came from England – Bedfordshire. Their early history is not completely known but by 1607, they were living in Harlington, Bedfordshire, at Harlington House – now known as Harlington Manor.

Lewis Burwell 1621-1653

Lewis Burwell 1621-1653

Lewis Burwell was born to Edward and Dorothy (Bedell)Burwell in Harlington,
County Bedford, England. His mother's brothers,Gabriell and John Bedell, were
members of the Virginia Company and came toJamestown with the Second Supply in
1608.

After the death of his father, his mother had marriedRoger Wingate. In October
1633 Wingate and Edward Kingswell arrived inJamestown aboard the ship Mayflower
with a plan to create a settlement inCarolina. Finding that their promised
transportation to Carolina was notyet available, they remained at Jamestown
through the winter until early springwhen they decided to give up the project.
In March Wingate left with hisfamily and returned to England and Kingswell
followed in June. They shouldhave been more patient, for the promised ship
arrived in July.

Lewis Burwell arrived at Jamestown about 1640 - a timewhen the original first
generation had failed to carry their leadership over tothe next generation. The
new immigration of 1640, of which Burwell and hisbrothers were a part would give
to Virginia the progenitors of her greateighteenth-century families.

Roger Wingate, Burwell's stepfather, was the residuarylegatee of the land for
which his now deceased partner, Kingwell, had claimed bythe headright system.
Wingate did not immediately claim the land to whichhe was entitled until the
spring of 1648. 2300 acres were granted jointlyto Burwell and Thomas Vause on
the "lower part in Yorke River about 7 miles upthe Narrow on the South side
thereof". In the summer of the same yearBurwell claimed the headrights he
inherited form his stepfather, he received2350 acres "lying upon the North Side
of York River up Rosewell Creek on theSouthward side thereof" for the
transportation of forty-seven persons. This was the largest patent issued in
1648.

Nevertheless, the estate could not have been so large asto have guaranteed
Burwell and his descendants a position ofundisputed eminence in the colony.
But while everything did notproceed smoothly, he appears to have been a hard
worker who devoted much of hisefforts to the acquisition of land. His
landholdings expandedrapidly, and in 1650, for the transportation of thirty-two
persons, he received1600 acres in Northumberland County "upon the South side of
Potomeck River andEast side of Machotick River". The next day he was alloted
500 acres -this time on the "South side of Potomeck River upon West side of
NomenyRiver". Two years later, in October, 200 acres "100 acres of which
lyeswithin the Pallisade at the Middle plantation...the other with out
thePallisade" were granted to "Major Lewis Burwell and Lucy, his wife".

When he died in 1653, he had been in Virginia for lessthan fifteen years.

Lewis married Abigail Bacon Smith on 4 Mar 1674 in , Gloucester, Virginia, USA. Abigail (daughter of Anthony Smith and Martha Bacon) was born on 11 Mar 1656 in Colchester, Essex, England; died on 12 Nov 1692 in Abingdon, Gloucester, Virginia, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
