In July 1774, John's plantation where his widow lived in Rowan County, North Carolina, was ordered sold at auction to settle debts.
The sale took place in October and it was sold to the highest bidder, Nicholas WELCH.

John married Elizabeth in Quittapahilla Township, by Casper STOEVER, Lutheran Minister. About a year before the marriage, John received a land grant in Lebanon Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania for 150 acres of land.

[Jessye Ann Welch High, "Times and Trails of My Welch Family" (1989), p. 15]

"In February 1746/7, John sold the 150 acres granted him in 1737.

On 24 October 1759 John received a Majesties' Patent for land on the Catawba River in Anson County, North Carolina (24 34 acres). In 1761 he received Land Grant No. 1966 for 200 acres of land in Anson County, North Carolina on Clarke Creek. When this land was surveyed his son, Nicholas, was one of the chain bearers.
