FIRST GENERATION


1. John BETTES was born about 1700. He died about 1750 in Pasquotank, NC.

This history begins in North Carolina around 1700; information before this time is rather sketchy. John Bettes was married to Mary Doser or Dozier. We will trace the line of Francis Bettis. This also seems to be the point where the spelling of the name changed. John BETTES and Mary DOSER/DOZIER had the following children:

child+2 i. Francis BETTIS Sr..
child+3 ii. John, Jr. BETTES.
child4 iii. James BETTES.
child5 iv. Thomas BETTES.
child6 v. Doser (Dozier) BETTES.
child7 vi. William BETTES.
