In November, 1674, Clement and Thomas Flynt were requested 2 CONC by the court to inspect a building for its worthiness, and on November 2 CONC 19, 1679, he was paid for mending the parish church. 2 CONT 2 CONT On June 7, 1679 the Court of Northumberland ordered the list of 2 CONC tithables divided into forties; each group of forty was ordered to 2 CONC deliver an able man along with a horse, arms and other provisions to 2 CONC the house of Thomas Mathew. Clement was one of the men charged with 2 CONC the responsibility of insuring that this order was carried out (Co. 2 CONC Court Note Bk. IX:16, 26). On May 16, 1694, Clement was appointed 2 CONC constable of Cherry Point. 2 CONT 2 CONT His will was presented to court on January 19, 1698-99. 2 CONC Unfortunately, this will was destroyed in a courthouse fire. 2 CONT 2 CONT No records of Clement's children, except for William's, are known of. 2 CONC Clement Jr.'s will was destroyed in the same courthouse fire that his 2 CONC father's was. So we don't know who Clement Sr.'s grandchildren were, 2 CONC other than William's offspring. 2 CONT 2 CONT The following is a Northumberland County VA court record from Patricia 2 CONC Daniels, Jan 26, 1997. 2 CONT 2 CONT Court 21 Sept 1699, page 66. Motion of Clem't Arledge, probate to him 2 CONC of the last will of Eliz. Arledge his wife, proved by Edw'd Barnes and 2 CONC Hugh Staten. 2 CONT 2 CONT The following excerpt was an email from Carolyn Jett, on January 13, 2 CONC 1997: 2 CONT 2 CONT "Clay, 2 CONT 2 CONT Clement Aldridge/Arledge was in Northumberland by 2 Apr. 1667, which 2 CONC was when he witnessed the will of the Reverend David Lyndsay. He was 2 CONC a neighbor of Lyndsay, whose gravestone (or half of it) is still 2 CONC there. That gives us the general location of Aldridge/Arledge's land, 2 CONC in the area known as Cherry Point Neck. 2 CONT 2 CONT On 20 9ber [November] of probably 1666 or 1667, Clement purchased 100 2 CONC acres of land. Nearby was another tract of 100 acres belonging to 2 CONC Cloud [Claudius] Tullos. It is possible that this Clement Aldridge 2 CONC was the same man who married Elizabeth Tilles at Worstead, Norfolk, 2 CONC England in 1668. If so, he must have returned to England to marry 2 CONC her, for he was here before that date. At any rate, the wife of 2 CONC Clement of Northumberland was Elizabeth. 2 CONT 2 CONT Many researchers think that he was the Clement Aldridge who was 2 CONC christened on 25 Sep. 1636 in Worstead, son of Clement and Susan 2 CONC Boswell Aldridge. 2 CONT 2 CONT Clement Aldridge/Arledge was a master joiner [carpenter]. There are 2 CONC several records proving this in Northumberland records. 2 CONT 2 CONT Clement Aldridge died in 1698/9 in Northumberland. He left six 2 CONC children, who were 2 CONT 2 CONT 1.

Isaac was 2 CONC born in December 1721, probably on Christmas day.

November 7, 1783, Isaac Arledge, planter 2 CONC of Camden District, sold 278 acres in Craven County, SC, south side of 2 CONC the Wateree River on Wateree Creek.

He 2 CONC was ordained to preach in March 1854. His first pastorate was at Holly 2 CONC Spring, Arkansas. His second was at Princeton, where he stayed until 2 CONC 1858. He moved to Pine Bluff.
