Notes for JOHN ARLEDGE:

He was the first clerk of court in Polk County, NC.

 

1860 census, Polk County (newly formed from Rutherford): lists JOHN ARLEDGE (30) as County Clerk living with William B. Wilson household.

 

Also in 1860: his brothers CLEM (35), G.B. (33), LEVI (47) and his father JONATHAN (with slave schedule)

 

Is this the same John ARLEDGE? Age is a few years off, but otherwise sounds like the same person:

 

Arledge, John, Private, K Company, 16th Regiment This company was from Polk County. John resided in Polk County and was by occupation a clerk prior to enlisting in Polk County at age 33 on April 20, 1861. Mustered in as Sergeant.

Reported absent wounded or absent without leave until he was dropped from the rolls of the company on November 6, 1863. Retired to the Invalid Corps on October 19, 1864 by reason of disability.
