One possible solution is with the family of Thomas Royal c1640-1709 who
come to this country in 1666. IGI gives no listing for this man in
England.
He died and left his will in ISLE OF W./Surry County Va. in 1709. His wife
was named Isabel.

Issue:
1. Charles, c1690-1755 married Ann _____ who we know died in Onslow Co. NC
in 1755.
In other words he was about the age of Cornelius ROYALL.. Charles and Ann
Royal listed in Bertie County in 1726 and 1729.
2. Thomas Royal Jr.
3. George Royal
4. John Royal c1668-c1730 married _____ HARDY-----Likely sons: Cornelius
Royal c1680-1745 and Owen Royal Sr.
5. Isabel Brown Royal son Lawrence Brown.

Charles Royall c1690-1755 died in Onslow Co. NC. Charles owned a gristmill
across Turkey Creek when he died.

1. ARTHUR ROYALL 1730-1799 is listed in a 1756 deed as the eldest son of
Charles Royall. Arthur married Susannah Cox, the daughter of Charles and
Rebecca Cox of Onslow. Charles Cox died in 1771. Arthur and family moved to
Georgia about 1764. Arthur Royall is listed in the Onslow Will of Charles
Cox as his son-in-law.

2. SAMUEL ROYALL moved to Georgia in 1759 and is likely the 3rd oldest.
Samuel Royal is listed in his father's will in 1755. Married (1) Esther
Williams (2) Verlinda Godbee

3. JOHN ROYALL is listed in deeds as early as 1750. 1782 land grant. Likely
2nd oldest.
Had a daughter named Mary single in 1798.
4, THOMAS ROYALL is listed the 1755 will of Charles Royall. He is listed
in a 1762 Onslow deed.
5. SARAH ROYALL

6. CHARLES ROYALL, listed in 1760 Onslow deed. Listed as deceased in 1788.
Had daughter named Rebecca, spinster in 1788.

Most of this Onslow Family moved to Burke Co. Georgia around 1760. Only two
sons are listed In the 1755 will of Charles Royall. They are Thomas and
Samuel Royall.
A Samuel Royall died in 1772 and left a will. Son Isaac and four daughters
are Listed.
Isaac married Mary Keen.

There was a John Royal son of Charles Royal in the county in 1769. I
believe that
this John was also the son of Charles who had died in 1755. There was
also an Arthur Royall 1730-1799 who sold land in 1763 that had belonged to
Charles Royall. This same Charles patented land in Duplin-Sampson and New
Hanover co. NC in 1750. This Charles likely was The brother of Thomas
(above) who had first settled in Pasquotank Co. Area in 1720. Thomas or a
son Thomas may have lived in Sampson prior to 1800.
