Gathering Giddens: Isaac Giddens - from North Carolina to Alabama

Isaac, his children, and his brother Abraham were found on membership lists for the Belleville
Baptist Church in Conecuh County, Alabama. [1]

I have not found direct evidence showing Isaac Giddens, born in 1782, to be the son of John Giddens of Wayne County, North Carolina. But, I have found records that indirectly point to Isaac as John's son. My first found record of Isaac Giddens was in John Giddens' probate record.  Isaac purchased items from John Giddens' estate on 10 December 1802. Isaac, the only Giddens making purchases, bought a set of hatters tools, twelve hogs, two steers, a mare, and five barrels of corn. [2]

According to this clipping in the 23 December
1806 issue of the Wilmington Gazette, Isaac 
married Fame Futch. This name differs from
numerous family trees that name Isaac's wife
as Phama Patterson. [5]

In 1806, on December 11th, Isaac Giddens married Fame Futch. According to the newspaper announcement both were of Wayne County. [3] John Giddens was the only Giddens in Wayne County in 1790 and 1800 so, can we safely assume that Isaac was his son? [4]

Isaac was found with his wife and children in Wayne County on the 1810 U. S. Census.[6] And, the 1810 Tax List showed that he owned 100 acres of land.[7] Isaac's land was situated on Jethro's Marsh Branch - the same location as land owned by John Giddens, at least three of his siblings, and by John's widow, Sarah.[8] Isaac sold that land before 1815 to Cullen A. Blackman and it doesn't appear that he owned land again in North Carolina.[9]
