| Notes |
- [The Buie Families of North Carolina]
Archibald Buie, will written February 8, 1781, and probated Apr., 1782, Cumberland County, North Carolina (deceased May, 1781) by John Cameron; executors: Gilbert Buie, Duncan Buie, Daniel Buie (my three sons), witnesses: John Cameron, Malcolm Gilchrist; estate inventory April, 1782 by Henry Gaster; administrator bond to Henry Gaster signed by Henry Gaster, Gilbert Buie and John Cameron.
Gilbert Buie (son): slave, Peter
Duncan Buie (son): slave Charles, and cattle
Daniel Buie (son): slave William
Malcolm Buie (son): slaves Glasgow and Hannah
John Buie (Duncan Buie's son): slave Jersie
John Buie (grandson, son of Archibald): slave Rachal
Rebekah Buie and Mary Buie (grandchildren, daughters of son Archibald):slave Jack
Daniel Cameron (relation not stated): Fanny, slave
The grandchildren were stated to be underage when the will was written.
From careful analysis of the early North Carolina records, the compilers have
determined that this Archibald Buie came to North Carolina from Jura in September, 1739.
He may have been the son of Neill Buie and Christine McPherson of Ardfin and was
baptized in 1705 and thus the brother of Daniel Buie (2). Archibald was granted 320 acres of land on the southwest side of the northwest branch of the Cape Fear in June, 1740, and 200 acres on the north side of the northwest branch of the Cape Fear in 1746. Archibald probably moved to the Barbecue Creek area about 1760.
Archibald's sons Gilbert Buie (12), Duncan Buie (20), Daniel Buie (5 or 11), Archibald Buie (8), and Malcolm Buie (22) are discussed separately. The relationship to Daniel Cameron was not stated, but presumably he was a close friend, cousin, or son-in-law
[Harnett Co., Heritage Book]
Archie Buie was the first settler of what was to become the town of Lillington, his nearest neighbor was William Stevens, 3 miles away. In 1749 Hugh McLean and his family arrived from Scotland and settled below Fox Island.
Archie Buie was one of the first Elders of Barbecue Presbyterian Church when it was formed in 1747.
