1. Robert purchased 66 acres in 1792. The transaction is cited in Rowan/Davie land records as Number 3237, p. 848, 7 Sept., 1792 as follows:
"Zachariah Bartleson to Robert Foster, son of James, for L(pounds) 60, 66 A (acres) on both sides of Bartlesons Mill Creek adj this Grantor, Augiom and Hezekiah Foster, which is part of land willed by Richard Bartleson to be divided between his daughters. Wit: John Lankford, James Foster. Prvd by James Foster at Feb Ct (court) 1797."
Note: Unless Robert was born much earlier than 1787, it is possible that his father, James, purchased the property and had it recorded in Robert's name.
