    I was born in Wayne County in 1937 to George & Piety Exum. My grandfather was James R Exum. His father was William D Exum. That is as far as we can go back. I know William D Exum married a girl named Ann. There was a William D Exum living in the home of William and Polly Spivey, according to the 1850 Johnston County census. Later they were living in Wayne County. Also looking for decendents of William and Ann. There were several children from this marriage. Daughter Ava married James R Rose on 5-8-1887. Daughter Mollie m. Charley Hawley 3-15-1896. Son Edwin m. Catherin Edna Pender 3-7-1886. Son James m. Patsy Jane Pender 5-20-1883. I dont know where these children settled down, but I assume it was in the Wayne-Wilson-Johnston-County areas. The 2 Pender girls were daus of William and Ann Radford Pender. I am also looking for family info on Henry M. Hooks of Wayne County. Henry's father was Jacob Hooks, who was the son of Hardy Hooks who married Drucilla Barden. Its seems that Henry had a 2nd wife, of whom we would like to know more. I think the 1st wife was Sallie Barnes. He had children by both wives. I am looking for her name and the other children. Henry's son Jim was married to one of James Exum's daughters, who was my Aunt. Sallie Barnes died in 1871 so Henry married again after that.
