Biography
William Honeycutt was a North Carolina colonist.
The earliest record we find of William Honeycutt, is William Hunnicut in the 1790 Sampson County, North Carolina census.[1]
- In 1800, we find William in Fayetteville, Sampson County[2]
- In 1820, we find Willie (please see Research Notes) in Capt Spills District, Sampson County[3]
- Lastly, in 1830, we find William Honeycutt in Sampson[4]
Research Notes
- For the above census records, the column counts have not been reviewed, which could help to rule in or out whether the correct generation of William is represented and perhaps provide some insight on a presumptive spouse and youths in the household.
- The Bizzell text (The Heritage of Sampson County, North Carolina), did not net any results.
- Some researchers have indicated that at least two types of records also exist for William, though it should be noted that his father had the same name and that this generation of William, himself, reportedly had a son named John William "Willie" Honeycutt (ca. 1775-1858), in the following areas:
- Revolutionary War records
- Land grants

Among their children were Penelope (Honeycutt) McLamb (ca. 1819–1862 / K2XQ-75Z), who married as his first wife Isham "Shadyback" McLamb II / Jr (ca. 1819-1903 / K2TN-VS8, whose profile is Isham McLamb II. These are distant cousins of mine, so I am hoping that someone who is likely closer can make this connection.
