Whitelaw shows that Bayley Macarty bought this 100 acres in 1732 from Thomas and Comfort Northam and in 1743 he, then living in North Carolina, sold to Charles Ashley. Nothing more was found recorded about him, but on 28 Mar 1750 George Booth, as heir-at-law to Charles Ashly, sold to William Beavans, who in 1761 (wife Mary) left to his son Nathaniel. The actual deed shows George Booth, heir-at-law of Charles Ashly dec'd, sold his right, title and interest in this 100 acres which Charles bought from Bayley McCarty to William Beavans for one shilling. This implies he did not own the land outright, but had some sort of interset in it.
