Note 8 — ROBERT HENRY’S ACCOUNT.

There is an interesting sketch of Major William Chronicle in “Hunter’s Sketches of North Carolina.” He lived in the S. E. part of Lincoln, now Gaston county, was born in 1755; his mother first married a McKee, and lived near Armstrong’s ford: When McKee died she married a Chronicle, by whom she had Major William Chronicle. Perhaps Col. Graham would have shared Chronicle’s fate, at the hand of the sharpshooters if he had remained.
