Henry Edmond FLOWERS was born about 1670 in Surry, Virginia and died aft 1745 in Edgecomb Co., North Carolina. He married Jane Underwood about 1695/1670 in Isle of Wight, VA. Henry Flowers was a tobacco planter who lived beside the Nottaway River for 25 years. Death location has also been seen as Sapony Creek at the Tar River, Nash County, NC, but perhaps that was his descendants.
It seems unlikely that he was born with a middle name in 1670, so it has been moved to the alternative names field.
Biographical notes
He was the first American born in our family. He did not have the advantage of a formal education the his forefathers had in England. There were no schools in Virginia when Henry was growing up. His education was gained from the school of hard work and enterprise. Henry and his family were pioneers.Henry and Jane's grandparents had come to America together on the ship Increase in 1656. He was also the first to add an s to the last name.He also had possibly 3 more sons Hardy, Jesse and Thomas. He is thought to have been born on the plantation his grandfather established in 1640. Henry settled on Nottoway River before 1721. The settlement of Jerusalem grew up around there and later became Courtland, the county seat of Southampton Co. His plantation here was scarcely 30 miles west of his grandfather's plantation at Upper Chippokes Creek near James River in Surry Co. A bridge built near Henry's land over the river was called Flowers Bridge. A chapel built in 1734 at Jerusalem was called Flowers Church.
In 1741 Henry migrated to North Carolina with all his sons except Jacob and settled in Edgecomb Co. on the Sapony Creek at Tar River. He lasts appears in court records there in 1745. It is unknown if his wife Jane lived to go to NC. It is speculated she died and is buried at Jerusalem. Henry and his family were pioneers. Henry and Jane's family had known one another for a long time. Flowers Church is now called St. Luke's Episcopal Church at Courtland.
