Biography

John Stansell, Jr., was also known as John Stanshall. He was also known as John Stancel.2 He was also known as John Stancele. He was also known as John Stancell. He was also known as John Stansell. He was also known as John Stancil.
.

The Shaftesbury Precinct of Abemarle County NC was renamed as the Chowan Prc of Albemarle in 1685. It was named for the Chowan Native American tribe which lived in the northeastern part of the Colony.



He, son of John Stansel, Sr., and Katherine Hardy, was born before 1700. It is unknown if John was born before or after the family moved down into North Carolina.3 John Stansell, Jr., son of John Stansel, Sr., and Katherine Hardy, was born in 1700 in VirginiaG.4,5

The family of John Stansell, Jr., moved from VirginiaG, to North CarolinaG.
In 1714 in Cashie Neck, Chowan Precinct, NCG, John Stanshall served during the Tuscarora Indian War.6
John Stansell, Jr., was in the in 1716 tax list for in Chowan Prec, NCG+. No land, no slaves.37,8,2
On 30 May 1717 the will of William Frost was signed. Witnesses: John Stansell, Jr..

John Stansell, Jr., married Sarah Godfrey Smithwick, daughter of Edward Smithwick, Sr., and Africa McGregory, in 1719 in Chowan Prec, NCG+. They settled on land that she inherited from her father.1,6,3,5,9

On 1 March 1719, John Stanshall received a land grant for 388 acres on Morrattock River, North CarolinaG. This land became part of Bertie Co when it was established in 1724.3
In December 1719 in Chowan Prec, NCG+, John Stansell, Jr., and wife Sarah Godfrey Smithwick sold Thomas Madkife of Cecil Co MD 388 acres. This was the 388 acres received in the land grant.3
John Stansell, Jr., was a land owner in the in 1721 tax list for in Chowan Prec, NCG+, 100 acres. They apparently settled on the hundred acres willed to Sarah by her father.
In 1723 James Swain sold 100 acres. This land was on the south side of the Morratock River beginning on Devil's Gut. This area is about 5 miles east of Williamston.3
In 1724 Peter Stansell sold John Stansell 150 acres.6
In 1724 in south side of Morratock, North CarolinaG, Peter Stansell, carpenter, sold John Stansell, Jr., planter, 150 acres on south side of Morratock. It was the remaining 150 acres of the 300 ac land grant.3
In 1726 Edmond Smithwick, Sr., sold John Stanshall 320 acres on the south side of the Morratock River. John Jr and Sarah conveyed to Edmond the Deer Hall Meadows tract of land in Kisiah Neck. This tract is north of the Roanoke in the Charlton Creek area. No record can be found revealing how John Jr came by this tract of land.3
In 1728. John Stansell also witnessed the deed six days later when Edmund sold the land to his(Edmund's) cousin's husband, Nathaniel Ming, for only five shillings.
. It is a known fact that there were many conveyances of land in the early days without the deed being recorded. The custom was that some educated person in the area, usually the Justice of the Peace, would write the deed, or the person involved would write it, using an old one for a guide. Getting it to the county seat in those times required days as compared to minutes or hours now. We can therefore understand the neglect of these people in not recording their deeds.Prior to the time that Martin county was established in 1774,Stancill would have been required to travel 100 miles round trip to visit the county seat. Their neglect in recording deeds makes it difficult on present day genealogists.3
.

Tyrrell Precinct NC was formed in 1729 from parts of Bertie, Chowan, Currituck and Pasquotank Precincts.3


In June 1735, John Stanshall. one of those ordered to lay out the first road from Pamlico River to Smithwick Creek. In June 1738, he was appointed overseer of this road.
In 1739. at the September Term of Court, John was one of the Grand Jurors.
.
