He was Irish. James Castellaw b. 1685 is the first Castellaw that came to the Colonies (we think). It has not been substantiated that this James was the same James Castellaw who settled in Bertie Co., NC Colonies. But we believe that it may be him. He was thought to be born 1685 in Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland. That James Castellaw went to the University of Glasgow and then emigrated to the Colonies in the early 1700's. He was an attorney and involved in the politics of that time. He was also land wealthy. He married Sarah Williams of Isle of Wight Co., VA about 1712. They had 7 children: Bethiah H., Thomas, Katherine, William, John, James and Sarah Castellaw. This Sarah married Jesse Francis Barfield. I am descended from Sarah's brother James Castellaw.
