Generation No JESSE 2 TATOM (RICHARD 1 ) was born Bef in Sampson/Halifax County, NC, and died Bef in Bladen County, NC. He married CHARITY ELKINS in Sampson County, NC. She was born in Sampson County, NC. Notes for JESSE TATOM: Jesse Tatom was born in Halifax or Sampson County. He is the proven son of Richard Tatom. He moved and settled in NE Bladen County. He is proven to be the father of Olen Tatom through bible records. It is a certainty that Theophilus was also a son, since he and Olen are closely associated in many records. Also included in records with them were Clabourn, Owen, and Richard Tatom who were most likely children of Jesse also. Richard Tatom, Jesse' brother, was the only other Tatom in Bladen at the time and he did not live in the same area as Jesse. He lived on the other side of the Cape Fear near Robeson County. Therefore, it is fairly safe to assume that these 5 were Jesse's sons. Notes for CHARITY ELKINS: Sampson County court minutes, page February 1791 Child- Laban Tatum and William Blackburn having been heretofore bound in recognizance to indemnify the county and wardens thereof from the damage that may accrue for the maintenance of a child that Charity Elkins declares she is pregnant with, they come into court and acknowledge the same. Ordered that they, the said sureties, remain as such till the child is born. 10 May 1791 Child- Charity Elkins, being convened before this court on a charge of being delivered of a child and refused to declare the reputed father, whereof ordered she enter into bond in the sum of 100 pounds for the maintenance of said child. She tenders Jesse Tatum and John Vann as sureties who are approved. Ordered they enter into bond accordingly. Children of JESSE TATOM and CHARITY ELKINS are: 5. i. RICHARD 3 TATOM, b. Abt ii.
