John Milton's father, Dr. George Glascock, was murdered in 1787 so is not listed but his wife and John Milton's mother, Patty, is listed in the 1790 census as 4 families away from John Milton
Glascock, and only 3 families from James Caddell who was probably related to Polly, John Milton's wife. When or why John moved to Buncombe County or where in that county is to be determined.

After the murder of John Milton's father, Dr. Geo. Glascock, Philip Alston was never found guilty of the charge of accessory to murder. "The case remained under the jurisdiction of the Wilmington District Superior Court even after the Fayettesville District was established in 1789 and included Moore Co. There appears to have been difficulty in getting people to court to testify against Alston. At the June term of 1788 of Superior Court, Reuben Shields, John Harding and Jesse Upton were placed under bond to appear at the December 1788 session as witnesses against Alston. This was repeated from term to term until the December term 1789 when John Milton Glascock, son of George Glascock, andf Reuben Shields, were bonded to appear against Alston at the June session 1790 (Wilmington Dist. Superior Court minutes 1789-1791, DCR 12.003)
The Wilmington District State Docket shows Alston was scheduled for trial at the December term, with John Milton Glascock as prosecutor, and Henry Person, Jesse Upton, Josephia Payne, Reuben Shields and James Maples as witnesses." Philip Alston fled jail about 8 Jan 1790 causing the trial to be "put off till the party be found". Alston was later murdered himself, therefore the trial never continued. (Quotes from "A History of the House in the Horseshoe" by Geo. W. Willcox)

Moved to GA 1812-1815, then to TN 1816, and to Bibb Co, AL somewhere between 1816 and 1820. Born in Lancaster Co., VA, raised in Carthage, NC, moved to Bunscombe Co., NC, then lived in GA, and TN, then moved to AL where he raised his family in several different Alabama counties. In AL settled in Isabella & Macedonia Community on the waters of Mulberry Creek. Ths area later became Baker Co. for a few years & then Chilton Co.

John Milton Glascock purchased two "Pre-emption" Land Patents from the Cahaba Land Office (sequential certificates #5980 & 5982 dated 1 June, 1831). John M. is specifically identified as "Senr." on these grants. These are for 80 acres (E1/2 of SW 1/4, Sec. 20, T17, R5) which is now in the extreme North East corner of Marengo Co. and 80 acres (E1/2 of SE 1/4, Sec. 34, T22, R12) which is now in far West Chilton Co. on the Bibb Co. line. The term "pre-emption" indicates that the purchaser was living (squatting) on the land prior to the time of the survey and was thus granted priority in purchasing. The two tracts were 51 miles apart (as the crow flies).

Children of John Glascock and Mary Caddell are:
  i.   Samantha Glascock, died Unknown.
  ii.   James (Jones) Glascock, born Abt. 1790; died Unknown; married Martha Campbell; born Abt. 1789 in prob Franklin Co., GA; died Unknown.
  Notes for Martha Campbell:
Aaron, Sr.s' daughter, Martha married James Glasscock.
In the 1830 census micro film Bibb Co. Alabama, James Glasscock 0021001 0100001, page 283. This shows both to be in their 40's. In the 1850 Marion County, AL census she was 66 and in the 1860 Marion County, AL census she was 73. (I am assuming, the Martha living with Jas. H. Glasscock in the Marion County, AL census was his mother, Martha Campbell Glasscock.) Which means she would have been born in the 1780s & probably between 1784-1787. Therefore Aaron, Sr. must have been born circa 1768-1771 assuming Martha was his first born, however I have Robert David Campbell being eldest b' circa 1780, this would push Aaron Sr.s' birth to 1766 or before.



  iii.   Louisa Glascock, born Abt. 1790; died Unknown; married Alexander Wilson; died Unknown.
  iv.   Thomas Glascock, born Abt. 1792 in NC; died Unknown; married Nancy Bramon Abt. 1810; died Unknown.
