Abstract of North Carolina Wills: Medcalf (Metcalf), William, Amelia (wife); William, Anne, Emanuel, and Joel.∼I have done extensive research on William Medcalf, Sr. prior to Anson County, North Carolina and have come up with this life story to the best of my researching skills.
William Medcalf was born in or before the year of 1743 just North of the Welsh Tract, Prince Frederick's Parish, Craven County, Province of South Carolina.

October 2, 1764, William Medcalf is listed in the Royal Land Grants from South Carolina for 150 acres South of the Great Pee Dee River. According to South Carolina headright and bounty rules/regulations... After 1755, heads-of-household could receive a hundred acres plus an additional fifty acres for every other member of the household. This would have to mean that William was married, but with no children at the time and the math from this suggests he was at least at the age of 21, which was the proper age for buying/selling land.
