Compiled by contributor Sis 47272811:

John Bourland Sr (sometimes spelled Boreland) and Catherine (Randolph) Bourland of Northern Ireland immigrated to Virginia circa 1761, likely through the busiest port of White immigrants to the British Colonies, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, before going to Virginia and finally to Wilkes County, North Carolina before the American Revolution (having children along the entire route).

A 1787 census taken in North Carolina 3yrs before dad John Sr's death there at age 49/50 (image attached) supports the 8 children we think they had together.

Additional note: John Bourland Sr's mother was Rachel (Moore) Bourland of Ireland.
