Deed Book L-268, Newberry Co., S.C.--9/4/1811
Jeremiah Dial to David Dial-Allmy right and title to 154 acres on IndianCreek. Dowager listed as Susannah Dial. Date 1813
1850 Alabama Census, Sumter Co., Page 297. The name of Jeremiah 3's wifehas been listed as Summer Hopper for as long as I have been doingresearch. This was based on research did by Nell
Jenkins of Sumter Co., Ala. Nell Jenkins did some wonderful researchwork in Sumter Co., but I think she is in error on this point. I amstill working on spelling of name for Susannah being McFartling,McFarlen, McFarling, or McFarland. A McFarlen family is listed on samepage with Jeremiah 3 in 1810
census. I leave the name Summer with McFarling because of census recordsand on papers after the death of Jeremiah 3.
Margaret married James McFarland, this data furnished by three differentsources within the McFarland family. I believe James to be brother ofSusannah Summer McFarland the wife of Jeremiah 3.
The 1810 census list a McFarlan family only two places from Jeremiah 3entry.

Jesse Scott, son of Jordan Scott, was born in South Carolina. Thebirth date shown on his tombstone in Durbin Cemetery in Wright County,Mo. is August 1768. Because of futher proof this year is thought to bein error, and perhaps the engraver transposed the date from 1786 to1768. It is believed that Jesse Scott was more than likely born in1786. When just a young child, Jesse moved with his parents,
from South Carolina to Bedford Co., Tennessee.
Jesse served in the War of 1812 from 28 Sep 1814 to 28 Apr. 1815
Lived to be a ripe old age, but was listed as bed ridden for last severalyears of life. It is a shame that more is not know about Anna. She wasthe female force in the Freeman household for many years and we know thatshe came from hardy Dial stock.
Listed in 1850 Tennessee census as a miller. Bailey orphans and CarolineLingo and her children also in household. Bailey children were shownwith last name of Freeman which is wrong.
Alexander Freeman: Born October 18, 1789 in South Carolina. Hedied November 29, 1859 in Izard County, Arkansas, and is buried in BighamCemetery, located about one mile outside Melbourne, Arkansas. AlexanderFreeman married Anna Dial in 1815 in Bedford Co., Tennessee.
They moved from Coffee Co., Tennessee to Izard Co., Arkansas about1855 with other members of their family, including the Theophilus R.Freeman Sr. family. Prior to 1850 the family had lived in the area ofpresent day Bell Buckle, Tennessee. I think the family traveled with alarge group of settlers in a wagon train to Arkansas where they hadpurchased or been given land in Izard Co.
