Elias and James Williams appears to be share croppers as indicated in Elias' will written in 1799, having crops on the land of William Douglas Haden. The Haden families first appear
on the First Census of U. S., listed as Heads of Families - Virginia, 1782 in Fluvanna County, Virginia. Those listed were Joseph, John, Benjamin, William and Anthony Haden. Elias had
lived in Fluvanna County before the war, had known the Hadens and followed them to North Carolina. Land Entry 119, 5 February 1778. Rowan County, North Carolina, records "Douglas Headon enters 500 acres on South side of main Yadkin River and North
side of South Yadkin River; border: William Headon on main Yadkin River and up the two rivers." On Land Entry 898, 12 June 1778, Douglas Headon "enters 250 acres in Rowan County on North side of South Yadkin River opposite mouth of Second Creek; includes improvement he bought of John Church." Also in 1787, a State Grant of 100 acres is recorded to Douglas Haden. In the will of William Haden, dated 18 March 1789. lists his wife, Unity, and son, Douglas Haden, but later names him Bill Douglas Haden and a son-in-law, Joseph Haden along with daughters.
This land owned by William Douglas Haden is located about ten miles northwest of the town of Salisbury and across the river from the Boone's Cave State Park named after Daniel Boone who had been in this area at one time. The name of Haden, Headon and Haiden appears many times as these families were owners of much land. This establishes where the Williams families lived from about 1785 until after Elias died in 1800. Records do not show that Elias Williams owned any land.
Note: There is a map in the book showing the location of this property.

Capt Douglas Haden served in the Revolution and was later Capt in the local militia.
The rejected pension application of Frederick Walser, R11096, dated 29 Apr 1837, states that Walser served under Capt. Douglass "Hadon", Capt John Lopp, Cap. Thomas Cowan, Col. F. Locke in the militia. In the month of August 1780 he was a resident of Rowan Co, now Davidson and was mustered into service as a minute man in the company of Capt Douglass Haden. He was marched up and the down the Yadkin River, to suppress and guard against the depredations of the Tories under Fannin [David Fanning]. He was in irregular service until Sep 1781, serving 12 months as a minute man. He was later drafted into the company of Capt Thomas Cowan and served three months. The whole time of service was 15 months. Walser believed he was born 25 Dec 1760, Lincoln Co, PA and came to North Carolina with his father in 1771. He had no proof of age, nor of his service.

Jacob Trout, Pension S1780, applied on 20 Aug 1832 in Rowan Co NC. He was then age 83. He entered service under Capt Haden [named later as Capt. Douglas Haden] in the Regt commanded by Col. William Loftin and served six months. He was marched from Rowan Co where he lived and was at Wilmington when Cornwallis surrendered. Previous to that he was drafted but his parents were old and infirm and he hired a substitute, giving the money to Capt. Richmond Pearson.
Richmond Pearson did make oath that the discharge was put into his hands but he cannot not find it.

In 1787, Capt Dugless Haden made "A Return of the Souls " in his Company.
He listed 2 white males under 20 & over 60. 1 white male 20-60 [himself], 1 white female, 4 blacks 12-60 and 4 blacks under 12 or over 60. There would appear to be an extra male - I believe this to have been Jesse who has not traditional been placed in this family. I do believe Douglas had two sons - William Douglas called "Billy D" and Jesse.
In 1789, in Capt. Pearson's Company, Douglas was listed with 564 acres of land. Grant #64 for 500 acres is the only known tract in his possession - perhaps it surveyed slightly larger than originally planned.

Here is the sale of the Andrew's land Douglas bought at a sheriff's sale. He sold it to Jesse. One tract may have been sold to his brother-in-law Robert Bradshaw but not recorded, but Bradshaw sold to Jesse, too:

By June of 1801, Douglas Haden had died, apparently intestate as no will has ever been found or indicated. Douglas' widow Elizabeth was still living.

Here is a tract of land - likely the remainder of the 500 acre grant in 1780 - sold by Jesse & Billy D. to James Ham who then sold it back to Billy D. three days later. If Jesse and Billy D. were in agreement that this property should belong to Billy D., one wonders why Jesse did not deed it to him directly.
