You've got me on that one!! All I know for sure about the Freemans of Burke Co. is that there seem to be a few of them in Burke and a bunch of them in Rutherford Co.which borders Burke. The 1850 Lauderdale Co. Mississippi census gives my James birth place as Virginia.Although his son Gideon Allen was born in North Carolina.According to the 1830 NC census, there were about six James Freemans in NC.By the process of elimination, the James in Burke Co. was the only one who would fit for my James.I wish I could tell you more but I have only just recently delved into the NC records looking for James so I have little to report yet.I can tell you that my James left NC and went to Illinois by late 1830s, then migrated to Miss. by 1850.
