NOTES
1). The Alstons in America .... Although there is no writte n record of when two cousins, both named John Alston, cam e to America or where they actually landed, the following a ccount is offered as the most probable solution In 1694, J ohn Archdale, a Quaker, was sent over from England to serv e as Governor of Carolina. It is believed that two young co usins, John Alston, age 21 born 1673 , the eldest son of J ohn and Anne Wallis Alston, and John Alston, age 28 bor n 1666 , the 2nd son of William and Tomasine Brooke Alsto n, came with the new Governor. They first went to Albemarl e Sound in North Carolina where the Quakers were numerous . Here the younger John Alston probably remained and marrie d Mary Clark. Tradition in the Alston family states that th e two cousins after reaching America, disagreed and parted . The elder John Alston accompanied John Archdale on to Cha rleston, South Carolina, where he went to meet with the leg islature there. This John Alston changed the spelling of hi s name by adding an additional L, making it John Allston. H e met and married Elizabeth Harris, a young widow, in June , 1695. In South Carolina, he founded the family which ha d been noted in the history of that state.
