Abstract:
Samuel Pricklove, a native of Nansemond Co., Virginia, came to Perquimans Precinct, NC by 1661, was a Quaker, and served as Register of Deeds and Clerk of Inferior Court. He became involved in the Culpepper Rebellion, was arrested and sentenced to be pilloried, having is right ear cut off and being banished from the colony. At the last minute, the deposition of Thomas Miller saved Pricklove from the sentence. The spelling of the Pricklove surname at some point changed to Pritlowe.
