    • John was in Bertie County, Northa Carolina in 1784, 1787 and1790. In 1758 John met Martha Butler and had several children who did retain the Castellow surname.

      John sold to his son William (brother of James and son of Martha Butler) 170 acres for the sum of 10 pounds.

      From the Miller book by Latham Lee Miller, it is stated that Martha Butler had two sons by John Castellaw (most likely before he married Margaret Dawson. They were given the Castellaw surname. The two sons remained in Bertie County while most of the children of John and Margaret (Charlotte, Thomas,Bartholomew, John Dawson, Henry D., Nancy and John W.) moved to Haywood County, Tennessee. The other brother, Thomas moved to Duplin County, North Carolina.

      John's will dated December 11, 1813. It was proved in May 1816. His will included Charlotte, Thomas, Bartholomew, John D., Henry D., John W. and Nancy C. All the above were left beds and furniture. His property was left to his wife Margaret. At her death the residue was to go to John D. Castellow.
