Information from the March 2007 Fogleman Newletter:

Several Fogleman families moved away from the Piedmont area of North Carolina in the late 1700’s. Those who left in the 1800’s were affected by the state’s depressed economy or had an aversion against slavery. Many settled in Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, South Carolina, Tenneessee, or Virginia. One family may have left for another reason. A dispute regarding use of a gate on the property owned by John Shaddy Fogleman became difficult when adjoining landowner Michael Shoffner III wanted to make it available for public use. An Alamance County (NC) jury agreed with Mr. Shoffner. After John moved to Randolph County (NC), he began selling hundreds of acres of land owned around the area.

On 1 January 1838, John S Fogleman and Henry Fogleman bought a Grist Mill from Henry Euliss for the price of eleven hundred dollars. In the year 1868, John S Fogleman moved to Montgomery County, Illinois. John is buried at the Wares Grove Church, 69 Waresgrove Ln, Butler, Montgomery County, IL. He was 74 yrs, 7 mo, 26 days at the time of his death.
