She had got out of bed one morning and was preparing breakfast. She was fixing to wash some meat and went to the fireplace to arrange the pot rack, when Uncle Jackie heard her fall. He ran to her but she was already dead. I remember seeing Canaan (her son) come over Granny Phoebe Sutherland, and he said 'Ma is dead.' Uncle Jackie was a small 'scrooched-up' man. He was a mighty good and honest man. He wore his beard cut short, was a farmer. Both belonged to the Baptist Church. He died of fever and Granny Phoebe Sutherland helped wait on him.' Noah Sutherland remembered: 'Grandpa Jackie Counts was the best moral teacher I ever had. He was good and kind ... and took pains with us kids. Grandma Counts was small.'

His education was above average for his day. He taught several schools on Clinch River and at Sandlick. On 6-3-1817, he was appointed a constable of Russell Co. and executed a $500 bond with John Howard as surety. About this time he moved to Tilda Anderson Bottom near Sandlick, the home of his brother in law, Richard Colley [C14 husband]. They lived there about 8 years. Their nearest neighbor, except Dick Colley, was Henry Sutherland - 20 miles away across Sandy Ridge on Dumps Creek. In October 1835, Joseph became a member of the Reeds Valley Baptist Church. The following May he moved his membership to Castlewood Baptist Church where his wife had been a member since December 1835. He represented his church as a messenger to the Washington Dist. Baptist Association in 1837. On 6-15-1827, he bought from Truelove Brown and others an interest in a 100 acre tract of land at Carterton on Clinch River and moved to this homeplace. Then on 8-21-1832, he bought from Polly Brown and others their interestin the same tract known as 'The Brown Farm'. He wasOverseer of the Poor in 1852. About 1859, a brother-in-law, James Long, whowas a large slave owner in Alabama, willed five of his slaves to Joseph and Sallie Long Counts. Joseph made a trip down there to secure these and other slaves bequeathed to Russell Co. relatives by James Long. He liked the country so well that he soon moved to Tishomingo Co., Miss, where his brother in law, Henry Long, had been living for several years. Joseph conveyed a tract of land in Russell Co. to John H. Jessee on 4-2-1860 (Tish Co. Miss D B 14, p 449). His last years were spent at the home of his son, Andrew J.

BIOGRAPHY: John was a soldier living in Caswell County, NC, during the American Revolution. He was listed as a musician in Yarborough's 10th Regiment, serving from April 1781 - April 22, 1782, and is listed again in Pierce's Register as a Revolutionary War soldier. Listed on the roster of NC soldiers in NC by the NC DAR, pg. 12 & 138. Also listed in the DAR Patriot Index, pg. 368.
BIOGRAPHY: John Jessee and his father Henry owned about 600 acres of land on Hico Creek, in Caswell Co., NC. This was ostensibly 'Moravian Land', and supports the conclusion that the Jessees were part of the Moravian settlement of North Carolina. This is the area that is today near Leasburg, North Carolina. John Jessee relocated his family to Russell County, VA, and bought land there in 1790, near what today is the town of Lebanon, VA. John Jessee bought land from Thomas and Jane Price, in Russell County on March 25, 1791. He eventually established his large family on several pieces in Reeds Valley on Carr's Creek. Going north from Lebanon on Mill Creek toward Cleveland, this land is about 1/2 mile north of Jessee's Mill near the top of the hill on the right side. The original land was sold to Archer Jessee, then George L. Jessee. Bransen Family owned land and the place is referred to as the Bransen Place. It is owned today by Dr. Smith, a veteranarian.
