John Landers III [Parents] was born 1 in 1770 in Granville County, NC. He married 2 Biddy Brinkley on 1 Sep 1795 in Granville County, NC.
It has been suggested that John III was born about 1785, but that wouldhave him only 10 at the time of his marriage. He is probably earlier inthe sequence of children. Since his father's will lists the sons as"William, John, Henry and George", he was probably born between Williamand Henry (between 1764 and 1778). There was another John, son of Josephand Sarah, born in 1785.
