Test. Wm G_____. Clk
**
William Pardue was the second son of John Pardue who died in 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina. He moved to Warren County, North Carolina in 1780 with his wife, Frances. Frances appears to have died between 1800 and 1809 when William married Jane Savage, possibly a widow.
William's daughter, Prudence, from his census records appears to have been born prior to 1780 thus she would be a daughter by his wife, Frances. It appears that his son, William, named in his will was the son of his wife, Jane, and is probably the William named as her brother in Prudence's will written in 1837.

Will of Joseph Pardue Died Warren County, NC 1790

WARREN COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA WILL BOOK 4, PAGE 34.
Joseph Pardue's will was presented for probate to the court session of Warren County, North Carolina in August 1790 by his son, John, who was then appointed by the court as administrator of his father's estate.
The Bristol Parish records of Prince George County, Virginia are fairly much extant and appear to have all the names beginning with the letter "P" available, but no Pardue, Perdue, Purdue or other variations of the name appear in Bristol Parish during the time period when Joseph was born.
The Joseph Pardue who witnessed the will of Joseph Pardue would not have been his young son, also named Joseph. A person who was a legatee of the will maker was precluded as being a witness to the transaction. It is likely the Joseph Pardue who witnessed the will was the Joseph Pardue who was born in 1761, was on Warren County, NC tax lists in 1780s, and appeared in the Warren County, NC 1790 and 1800 Federal Census, was the Joseph Pardue who moved to Chester County, South Carolina between 1800 and 1810, and died there in 1845.
The Joseph Pardue who was a legatee in his father's will was most probably the Joseph Pardue who died in 1807 in Granville County, North Carolina.
