His children and thir spouses were riddled with tuberculosis. Note how many died young. Daniel lived about 5 miles west of present town of Raeford on Buffalo Creek Co about 1785. Owned several thousand acres of land on both sides of the creek from its head to the junction with the Lunbar River ( Downing? Creek). Built a mill on the creek, raised stock and had the first sawmill - very primitive. He also had the 21st painted house in the area. It was painted red so was called the Red House. Buf Can sold the red house in 183? to Arch McMillan so was called Red House Archie. It was still standing in 1969. He helped organize Bethel Pres. Church. After death his wife went to Talledega Co with relatives and bus.
