After the war General Sumner married a wealthy widow, a Mrs. Heiss, of Newbern, by whom he had three children --- Thomas Edward, who died without issue: "Jacky," who also left "no continuance:" Mary, his daughter, married Hon. Thomas Blount, a member of Congress, and brother of Major Read- ing Blount, who fought at Eutaw Springs. She had no children, and the generation of General Sumner ended with her death.
He was buried in Warren County, near the road that runs from Louisburg to Warrenton, and near the old Sbocco Chapel. There is a slab over his grave with this inscription :
"TO THE MEMORY OF GENERAL JETHRO SUMNER,
ONE OF THE HEROES OF 1776."
(471 )
Not a county or town in the State bears his name. The day of his death and his birth are alike un- known. No voice has been raised in eulogy of his heroic character : no public recognition of his services has ever been made: modest and unpretentious in life, negiceted in his death, this great Carolinian sleeps in the solitude of the forest, where the waste of time will soon obliterate the trace and memory of his grave.
" Lo ! here he lies, who every danger braved ; U'nwept, unhonored, in the land he saved."
Will not some young North Carolinian under- take the honorable task of having these sacred remains removed to the capital of the State, and marked by a monument, worthy of the memory and heroic deeds of this noble soldier ?
My task is done. My duty to my State is per- formed. In reading the histories of the invasion of the Colonies, in I;So-'Si, my heart burned with indignation at the many misrepresentations, of the people of North Carolina, which had so long gone unchallenged. I was surprised at the way the State had been robbed of her honors, and unjustly reproached by unworthy men, and astonished that our own authors had repeated these reproaches. rather than take the trouble to investigate the truth of history and repel them. I therefore deter- mined to do what I could to correct these misrepre- sentations, and resent the reproaches so unjustly cast on my native State, which I so fondly love. This book is the result of that determination.
(472)
It was prepared among the busy cares of a law- yer's office, with a full practice on my hands; but if it shall serve to awaken the slumbering pride of our people, who have been more modest than wise. or provoke them to investigate the truth of North Carolina history, or increase their love and devotion to the "good old North State." the object of my book shall have been accomplished.
