James ODOM Jr. (102) – (Pitt County) North Carolina

German     population.)

Marriage date: son William C. ODOM  was born 1800 per later census records --
Household of Mary (CRISP) ODOM’s father Samuel CRISP 1800 census does not show a
female to account for Mary.  The marriage may have been 1798 and reason for
purchase James Jr.'s purchase of land. Marriage location was probably in Pitt
Co. - Mary's father Samuel CRISP was mentioned in many Pitt Co. land records and
was later "of Edgecomb" - but not until after the extreme north west section
(which contains Crisp Creek) was cut off in 1801 to become part of Edgecomb Co.
Early records for CRISP family (1780's) shows Samuel in Martin Co.  (LaVerne
Markart)


Lived as a child, as suggested by the land purchases:


Father James W. ODOM Sr. was in Northampton Co. NC - first land purchase by
James Sr. 1792

1830 Cannon County Tennessee census shows  William ODOM & Charlotte (WARD) with
a confusing household:


one male 30-40  William ODOM b. 1800 = 30 years old based on later census info
2 males 20-30 –  unknown!
male 15-20 –   unknown! - too old to be sons of William
male under 5 -  Cantrell B. ODOM b. 1828 = 2 years old
one female 40-50 –  possibly  a mother in law or older sister of Charlotte?
Female 20-30 -  Charlotte (WARD) b. about 1808 = 22 years old*
Female 15-20 –  unknown! - too old to be a daughter of Wm. - possibly a niece or
sister-in-      law?
2 females 5-10 -  listed on family group sheet as daughters b. 1820-1825
2 females und 5 -  b. 1825-1830 - listed on family group sheet as daughters, but
could be      other relatives.
* this is assuming the 1850 census birth date is correct

Birth age: Samuel ODOM’s age in census records consistent with birth year of
1805 - however, he is listed as surety for marriage of Fountain Owen to Alaminta
Hancock in 1822 -- Samuel ODOM would have only been 17/18 years old in 1822.  He
was also surety for marriage of his brother James S. ODOM to Mary (FRANCIS) in
1824 and for his brother John (Jehue) ODOM to Mary (LAX) 1839


Samuel is not listed by name on the 1830 census but appears to be one of the
males in appropriate age group in his father's household. There are also two
females in 15-20 age group who are unaccounted for in ODOM family - one is
probably Benjamin ODOM's wife, Mary (HIGGINS) (m. 1828) - could the other one be
Samuel ODOM’s wife Mary Elizabeth (OWEN) ?  SEE CENSUS


*According to info in NOA Newsletter April 1995, her father was Josiah Owen,
neighbor of James/Mary - his household 1830 census also shows a daughter of
appropriate age to be Mary Elizabeth.  Have seen no evidence to prove that she
was daughter of Josiah - no sons are named for him, nor any daughter's named for
his wife Ritter Bryan(t) Owen.

2……. (5) Benjamin Franklin ODOM
  b. 8 Dec 1809 – (Pitt County) North Carolina – also have 3 Dec 1809
  d. 7 Jul 1881 (murdered) – Auburn (Cannon County) Tennessee (NOA)


Birth and death dates taken from grave marker.  Benjamin Franklin ODOM was shot
and killed by his son-in-law Vance WILSON (who had married 2 of Benjamin's
daughters).  Apparently, the reason for the killing was an argument over the
killing shortly after the Civil War of a Harrison THOMAS, a son-in-law of
Benjamin (no idea which of the daughters had married Harrison THOMAS) He was
killed by Burt WILLARD, who had married Melisa (FRANCIS) WILLARD (relative of
Mary (Francis) ODOM, wife of James S. ODOM, Benjamin's brother) Melisa (Francis)
WILLIARD was in turn related to Vance WILSON.  WILSON had been drinking and
subsequently fatally shot his father-in-law which was the beginning of the long
and deadly ODOM/WILSON feud which resulted in the death of 2 of Benjamin's sons,
Charley & Dock ODOM....

Samuel has questionnaire published in "TN Civil War Veterans"  - says he & 4
brothers served in the Confederate.  Army - one brother killed at Padukah KY -
but does not name which one.   He states his regiment was 2nd TN Company C and
included many ODOM names:  J.H.; Jno. H.; J.W.; B.F.S.; J.J.; B.F.; and Henry
ODOM. (Henry was son of James S. & Mary Francis ODOM) - don't know which of the
others are Samuel's brothers.   In same book, MW McKnight's questionnaire lists
ODOMs in Hancock's Diary of Company "C" (list of casualties)  B.F. ODOM killed
at Padukah (only ODOM death listed); S.C. ODOM listed as wounded at Mud Creek
(which is also stated in Samuel's questionnaire). (LaVerne Markart)


Possible connections:
 J. H. =  Brother James Higgins ODOM b. 1834 = 30 in 1864
 Jno. H.=  Brother John Higgins ODOM b. 1838 = 26 in 1864
 J. W. =  * Cousin James W. ODOM  b. 1842  = 24  or James A. M. ODOM b. 1842 =
24
 B. F. S. = ** unknown
 J. J. =  Cousin  John J. ODOM b. 1828 = 36 was son of James S. & Mary Francis
ODOM
 B. F. =  Brother Benjamin Franklin ODOM (Jr) died 1864 aged 29
 Henry =   Cousin Henry ODOM b. 1844 = 20 was son of James S. & Mary Francis
ODOM
 S. C. =  Brother Samuel Crisp ODOM b. 1840 = 24 in 1864


William C. ODOM  probably also served as he was 32 in 1864, although he is not
listed above. .  The next brother was Francis G.D. "Dock" ODOM is probably too
young in 1864 = 15 years old. (Ken Jenkins)


*As for the others, assuming these were relatives, the ages of the cousins
suggest J.W. could be James W. ODOM, son of Shadrack Jarmon ODOM and Sarah
Windbush (OWEN) or, more likely Henry ODOM’s Brother James A. M. ODOM, “M” read
as a “W” as this would show a “family enlistment” with “James J. ODOM and Henry
C. ODOM. (Ken Jenkins)


**  B.F.S. suggests “Benjamin Franklin” (‘S” = Shadrack? Or “second?” to
distinguish him from his five year older cousin Benjamin Franklin ODOM?) which
would be Benjamin Franklin ODOM b. 1840= 24 , who was a brother to James W. ODOM
– another possible “family enlistment.” (Ken Jenkins)

*Two young adult females suspected - Drufina had married 1826 to Lemuel Koonce -
no other young females were in the 1820 census.  Since Benjamin married 1828 and
does not appear in his own household, one of these females is probably his wife
Mary.  Samuel's marriage date is unknown (first child born 1832/33) could other
young female have been his wife?  Her father Josiah Owen's household also
included a female in this age group as well as younger daughter 10-15.

Notes by Laverne Markhart:


James ODOM Jr.’s birth year estimated from census information NC & TN NC State
Census 1786 & 1790 Fed. Census - was in father's household, Northampton Co.,
NC.  His parents deeded land to him in Pitt Co.   1798 James ODOM Sr. & James
ODOM Jr. both appear in 1800 census, Pitt Co.   James ODOM  Jr. sold one parcel
of land 1810 to Singleton CRISP, relative of is wife Mary (CRISP) ODOM;  he
granted power of attorney to Stapleton POWELL in 1812; and sold last parcel of
land to E. MOBLEY in 1813.


First TN land record found 14 Jan 1811 when he purchased 200A on Sander's Fork
from William HODGES (Deed Book #, pg 401)Wilson Co. Deed book F, p 53   James
ODOM (Jr) purchased 50 A on Sander's Fork 25 Feb 1816 from Jordan WARD (who was
bondsman for his son William C. ODOM’s marriage 1819 to Charlotte WARD and was
her father).


James ODOM Jr.’s will dated 1843 names all of children listed in family group
sheet and based on 1820 census records for Wilson Co., these appear to be the
only children.  Only other ODOM shown in early Wilson Co. census is Brittain
ODOM who is not in Wilson Co. on 1830 census.   Marriage records of Wilson Co.
show that Britton ODOM m. Ridley BLURTON 12 Sept 1814, bondsman Jubel BOBBET.
It would appear that Britton ODEN came to TN about the same time as James & Mary
(CRISP) ODOM.  Other early marriage records for Wilson Co:  Moses ODOM to Lucy
LAWRENCE 4 Aug 1825; Thomas ODOM to Elizabeth ALLEN 1831; William C. ODOM to
Francis COOPER 1832.


Census records for Wilson/Cannon Co. TN account for all children named in James
ODOM Jr.’s 1843 will.


-----Will of Nelson Bryan Wilson Co. TN  5 Oct 1836  Heirs:  children POLLY
OWEN; John B. Bryan; Nelson J. Bryan; Elizabeth Grimmet; William M. Bryan; Sarah
Bryan; A. Bryan; and Christianna Bryan.  Wit:  Abner Alexander; JAMES ODOM
Executors:  Joshua Lester and John B. Bryan. Rec. 21 Nov 1836  (Pp 422-423)


This James or son James S.?


Mary (CRISP) ODOM: Was probably the daughter listed in 1790 census in Samuel
Crisp's household -- Does not appear in 1800 census for Samuel's household - all
females were under 10.  1850 Cannon Co. TN Census, Mary (age 68) is listed in
household of her youngest  daughter, Mary Ann Patrick.  1860 Cannon Co. TN
Census, Mary (age 76) is listed in household of her youngest daughter, Mary Ann
Patrick.  Not listed in 1870 TN Census


General: DB 13-383 Mary ODOM, wife of James ODOM, was daughter of Samuel CRISP,
April 2 1810
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
SOURCES
1.  Was on 1860 census, not on 1870 census.
2.  Census records 1850 list his age as 50 - in 1800, his parents were living in
Pitt Co., NC  There is will recorded 1856 in Cannon Co. according to TN Index -
have not checked, but assume it is same William and is year he died.
3.  Will recorded in Wilson Co. 1856.
4.  Birth year based on age given in census records.
5.  Birth and death dates taken from grave marker.  Benjamin was shot and killed
by his son in law Vance Wilson (who had married 2 of Benjamin's daughters).
Apparently, the reason for the killing was an argument over the killing shortly
after the Civil War of a Harrison Thomas, a son in law of Benjamin (no idea
which of the daughters had married Harrison Thomas) He was killed by Burt
Willard, who had married Melisa Francis (relative of Mary Francis ODOM, wife of
James S. ODOM, Benjamin's brother)  Melisa Francis was in turn related to Vance
Wilson.  Wilson had been drinking and subsequently fatally shot his father in
law which was the beginning of the long and deadly ODOM /WILSON feud which
resulted in the death of 2 of Benjamin's sons, Charley & Dock ODOM....

NOTE


Check the 1830 Wilson County Tennessee Census where all the ODOM are found.  The
REED/WEBB/LAWLERS/LASATER families interconnect in the WEBB genealogy –
especially the 1879 move from Henderson County, Tennessee to Ellis County
Texas.  George WEBB is a definite ancestor.
