From Wes Web site:
Margaret named in her 1744 will the following: "son Robert Patte rson, and his children; Mary Patterson, daughter of Robert Patte rson; daughter Jane Love; granddaughter Margaret Dollinson; gran ddaughter Ester Harrison; daugher Elizabeth; son-in-law Daniel L ove; son Samuel Adams. She named Robert Patterson and Samuel Ada ms executors. Daniel Love, Jane Love, and Ester Harrison signe d the will September 15, 1744, as the children of "Margaret Adam s".

In 1770 the following entry was added to it: "These are to certi fy to all persons whom, &c., that I, Robert Patterson of North Carolina, Tryon County, son of William Patterson, deceased, do di sclaim any right or title that is or may be alledged belonging t o me of a certain tract of land lying and being in Augusta Count y upon a small branch on the south side of Linvell's Creek, whic h said land was taken up by Margaret Adams, the widow of John Ad ams, deceased.--Robert R. Patterson. 1st February, 1770.
Teste: Francis Adams, J. P., North Carolina, Tryon County.
Certifies that Francis Adams is a magistrate. Ezekiel Polk, C. C. Proved, 15th March, 1770, by Samuel Hull and Jacob Gum. Samue l Adams qualifies executor, with Joseph Dictum, John Madison, Jr ."
***
This last bullet points out a few things. Robert "R" Patterson . In 1770 he was in Tryon Co NC. Clark's Fork of Bullocks Creek , where Robert Patterson of York Co SC was in 1770, was consider ed to be in Tryon Co NC in 1770. There were NOT any other Rober t Pattersons in Tryon Co NC in 1770 in areas that were later cla imed by SC. As for areas that were later claimed by NC, that wou ld include prior counties of Anson and Mecklenburg. There WAS an other Robert Patterson in Mecklenburg Co NC prior to the formati on of Tryon Co. However, he was still in Mecklenburg Co NC in th e 1780s AFTER the state boundary line was straightened out. Ther e is enough evidence about him to show that he was NOT this Robe rt of Tryon in 1770. Also notice in the last bullet how Robert P atterson refers to his mother as Margaret Adams, not Margaret Pa tterson. This is another reason why we must consider the possibi lity that the Patterson marriage MAY have been the first marriag e for Margaret, and the Adams marriage last.
* Also notice that Joseph Dictum was an executor of the will i n 1770. Remember that Joseph Dictum was the husband of Rachel Lo ve, granddaughter of Margaret Adams. Joseph was also the son-in- law of Daniel Love.
