King Roger of Wilmington and the Old South Port Century
Colonel Fred A. Olds portrays early North Carolina life along the Cape Fear River from Wilmington to Old South Port. The piece centers on King Roger Moore, his Orton mansion, his vast slaveholding and a yearly migration by river, with vivid notes on the riverine landscape, plantations, and the era’s brutal slave economy. It details the dram tree, Orton’s brick house built in 1728, a lake mill, and the slave huts, alongside King Roger’s four wives and armed retinue, culminating in raids on Indian villages and mass killings in a frontier society.
