      _______________

      In 1855 James D. Newsom (who owned mills in Milton, NC) brought suit in the Wake County North Carolina Equity Court against John B. Barrett and Caleb H. Richmond. Neither the basis of the suit nor the outcome is known.

      John B. Barrett may be John Barker Barrett (1819-1900).

      Caleb H. Richmond may be Caleb Hazard Richmond (1805-1861).

      John Barker Barrett and Caleb Hazard Richmond married sisters: Rebecca Harvey Dodson (1825-1911) and Mary Randolph Dodson (1810-1887), respectively.

      Another sister, Lucy Mayfield Dodson (1812-1895) married Jacob Able Ramseur (1808-1880). Their first son is General Stephen Dodson Ramseur (1837-1864), who married Ellen Ella Richmond (1840-1900), eldest daughter of Caleb Hazard Richmond and Mary Randolph Dodson. Confused yet?

      Yes, General Stephen Dodson Ramseur married his maternal first cousin.

      Caleb Hazard Richmond built "Woodside" in Milton, Caswell County, North Carolina.
