Abstract:

On Aug. 4, 1758 in Beaufort County, Lucy Tyson, wife of Abraham Tyson, called Ann Tyson, wife of John Tyson, a whore. Ann Tyson accused Lucy Tyson of having two bastard children before she was married and killing them; and of being a thief, stealing linen out of her father’s store to make shirts for the men she had sex with. Also that Lucy’s son, Cornelius Tyson, is a bastard, being a son of Robert Williams.
