Note: I have a copy of the Rev. David Isaiah Offman's (1974) "AlbrightFamily Records." I took note that he had spelled her name as BarbaraBason on (Page 30) and also omitted the "W" after Andrew. That is theonly mentioning of Barbara Bason in his 98 page history.

Note: In AlamanceCounty, five miles south of Graham, is Mount Harmon (Hermon) Church.George, son of Daniel and Catherine Loy Albright, gave this track for aburying ground and many of the old Albrights were laid to rest there.Just two miles west of Mt. Harmon is the old Stoner Church where JacobAlbright, grandson of Henrich, was buried. The exact place is not knownbecause most of the graves were only marked by a small rock protrudingfrom the ground. There is no record of a name cut in the stone. Whatinformation that is available has been obtained mostly from familyrecords usually found in the big old Bibles. However, some of the graveshave soap stone markers but age has darkened these stones so much thatthe records are difficult to copy. Near Alamance is the old St. PaulChurch graveyard where many Albright records are found. Just south ofAlamance County is Chatham where the Pleasant Hill Christian Church islocated. Near by, at the old Cane Creek Quaker Church, founded in 1751,where many Albright records are found. Then in Guilford County, atGreensboro, is the Buffalo Presbyterian Church which was organized in1756 by David Caldwell. Here, in the older section of the cemetery,Albright markers predominate.

Albright owned twenty-five slaves and was a staunch Democrat. Thefollowing is a deed for slaves given by Crabtree Siler to his daughter,Sylvina Albright in 1855: "Know all men by these present that I CrabtreeSiler of Chatham County and State of North Carolina hath given to D.H.Albright and my daughter Sylvina Albright all the negro slaves in theirpossession, to wit: Harry thirty years of age Mary twenty-eight years oldJane fourteen years of age Nancy nine years of age Mahala six years ofage to have and to hold said slaves and their increase during theirlife-time then to be equally divided between her children if anyotherwise to return to her brother Samuel F.

Signed and sealed in presence of S. Siler. (Seal)Crabtree Siler" (There were no punctuation marks in the deed)After theCivil War, the South was disfranchised by the carpet beggers of the Northfor rebellion against the government. So at the request of Jonathan Worthand John Gilmore, who was once prominently mentioned for thevice-presidency, Governor Holden of North Carolina applied to PresidentJohnson for pardon for Durant Hatch Albright. The request was grantedabout two months after Lee's surrender. The following is a copy of thepardon which was, in 1941, in possession of D.H. Albright's son, WalterH. Albright: "Andrew Johnson, President of the United States of America,(to all to whom these presents shall come greeting:) "Whereas, D.H.Albright of Chatham County, North Carolina, by taking part in the laterebellion against the Government of the United States, has made himselfliable to heavy pains and penalties. "And whereas, the circumstances ofthis case render him a proper object of Executive clemency. "Now,therefore, be it known, that I, Andrew Johnson, President of the UnitedStates of America, in consideration of the premises, divers other goodand sufficient reasons me thereunto moving, do hereby grant to the saidD.H. Albright, a full pardon and amnesty for all offences by himcommitted, arising from participation, direct or indirect, in the saidrebellion, conditioned as follows, viz: this pardon to begin and takeeffect from the day on which the said D.H. Albright shall take the oathprescribed in the Proclamation of the President, dated May 29, 1865, andto be void and of no effect it the said D.H. Albright shall hereafter, atany time, acquire any property whatever in slaves, or make use of slavelabor. "And upon further condition that the said D>H. Albright shallnotify the Secretary of State, in writing, that he has received andaccepted the foregoing pardon.
"In testimony whereof, I have hereunto signed my name and caused the Sealof the United States to be affixed. "Done at the City of Washington, thistwenty-fourth day of June, A.D., 1865, and of the Independence of theUnited States the Eighty-ninth. By the President Andrew Johnson. W.Hunter, Acting Secretary of State." As it happened, disfranchisementlasted only one year. However, no one knew at the beginning how long itwould last. In order to avoid any further trouble, D. H. Albright gavethe negroes who worked for him after the war a receipt showing that theyhad received money for their labor. The following is a copy of a receipt,the original of which was kept by his son, Walter H. Albright: "Rc'd ofD.H. Albright my former master ten dollars in full for work done for himsince the Surrender of General John's Army last spring. Nov. 11th, 1865George Albright Wm. Lashley X " "Rc'd of D.H.

John Wood, Henry Clay b: 13 JUL 1842. Note: Cpt. Henry Claryb. 13 JUL 1842 Death: 27 OCT 1864 in Civil War -- Winder Hospital,Richmond, Virginia. Note: Capt. Henry C. Albright, a Confederate officerof the 26th North Carolina Regiment, was killed in battle nearPetersburg, Virginia. Henry Clay, child of William and Louisa WoodAlbright, had a very interesting war record. At the beginning of theCivil War in 1861, he was among the first volunteers from Chatham County,North Carolina. Mr. Vance, then Governor of that state, took specialinterest in Henry Clay's company and soon he became a Captain. During thewar, Vance sent Captain Henry to Snow Camp to get recruits. There, hefound strong union sentiments and was not successful in getting any oneto enlist. He went to his brother's house, Durant Hatch Albright, andwrote his information in a letter to Vance. His brother warned himagainst the capture of this news by Union forces and sure enough hisletter was intercepted in the mail by northern troops and publishedwidely by northern papers. Captain Henry fought in the Battle ofGettysburg and went into Picket's famous charge. As history tells, hewent into battle on July 1, 1863, with over 800 men in his regiment andonly 216 came out unhurt. The next day, the regiment was engaged againand only 80 survived. This proves that the 26th North Carolinians fromChatham County showed unusual bravery and heroic courage. Captain Henrywas wounded in the head in the Battle of Squirrel Level near Petersburgand died in Winder Hospital 27 days later. His hat still bears the bulletholes and blood. Henry's uniform and hat along with a sword captured froma Union soldier of rank, which had been handed down to his nephew, WalterHatch Albright, are in the state museum at Raliegh, North Carolina. Gen.George Pickett's charge across a mile of open field led to theConfederacy loss at the Battle of Gettysburg and is considered theturning point of the Civil War. Of Picket's 15,000 troops, more than halfwere killed, captured or injured.
