    Moved to North Carolina 1767 with his nephew, Joseph Holder. Listed among men resident in Bethania 1775-1783.

    Will recorded Stokes County, North Carolina will book 1, page 14: abstract of his will, written 23 Nov 1788 and probated in December 1790. To his wife, Mary Margaretha, he gives furniture, stock, etc. To his son Andrew he gives the "Plantation I now live on". To son John he gives 100 acres on the waters of the Yadkin river adjacent to Henry Spoonhour and Adam Fiscus. He says his children Adam, Ann Mary, Catharina, Christina, Magdalena, Margaretha and Hannah have already received their shares. Signature is "Andrew x Folk" (or Fulk).

    November 9, 1767, Yesterday Andreas Volz (Volk), Joseph Holder, Stauber, and their families, arrived from Pennsylvania.

    July 23, 1768, For some days the weather has been very hot and oppressive, with frequent thunderstorms. As Andreas Volk and his wife were approaching Bethania there was a sharp clap of thunder, the horse reared, the girth broke, and the saddle and Volk fell one way, and his wife fell the other. Neither was hurt.

    December 30, 1768 Benjamin Leinbach came to Br. Graff and announced his engagement to Andreas Volk's daughter, Christine, and asked for the publication of the Banns, and that we would marry him. For this latter he was referred to Br. Loesch as Justice of the Peace; the Banns can be published by Br. Bachhoff as Public Reader and Clerk of Dobbs Parish.

    December 24, 1770, In the evening the congregation, including the children, rejoiced over the Incarnation of our God. In the first service, at six o'clock, Christmas hymns were sung, and the Christmas story was told to the children. After half an hour's intermission there was Love-feast, the story of the Birth of the Saviour was read from the Bible, and hymns were sung to Br. Volk's violin accompaniment. Then honey-cakes and verses were distributed, and the service closed with earnest prayer. The children were full of wonder and joy, it being the first time they had attended such a service.

    May 20, 1772. Andreas Volk and six of his neighbors from the New Garden Settlement have been to the Allimance, where the battle with the Regulators was fought last year, and have secured 3,000 lbs. of flour, at 15 shillings per 100 lbs.

    May 27, 1772, Andreas Volk was given a Certificate which frees him from attending Muster. A number have been issued this year, as the Captains are insisting on it in their districts.

    September 8, 1778, Br. Bagge has again begun work on the well on his building lot, and had some rock blasted out by Andreas Volk.

    January 10, 1780, Andreas Volck came for me, and I rode with him to the home of Heinrich Demuth, where I baptized Demuth's twins, George and Andreas, and little Anna Catharina Erny.

    October 9, 1780, Andreas Volk's son came for the doctor for the brother-in-law Johanna Krause, who was shot in the leg yesterday while standing guard at Richmond, which was again visited by a strong party of Tories under Gideon Wright. The bullet had remained in his limb; Joseph Dixon was sent to bind up the wound. The Tories had expressed sympathy for the injured man, saying the ball had not been meant for him but for someone else, and so on. What consequences this may have remains to be seen.

    April 10, 1786. Brother Beck gave in the names of the friends near Bethania who wish to be received into the Society, namely, John and Anna Maria Krause and their two daughters, Margaretha and Maria; Johann and Maria Volk; Jacob and Johanna Volz; and the unmarried Andreas Volk.

    August 17, 1790, Young Andreas Volck brought word that his father passed away peacefully last evening.
