| Notes |
- The well known Riddle researcher Doratha Riddle Marsh gives Stephen Riddle the credit for being the first Riddle in North Carolina which was prior to 1757. Riddle's Ferry was located on the Yadkin River near what is now Clemmons, North Carolina, 12 miles south of Salem.
The ferry remained in the family until sold by Stephen's son Benjamin Riddle to Thomas Oakes in 1824. Benjamin and his family then moved to Hardeman Co., Tennessee.
Stephen's father was Benjamin Riddle (1703-1750) son of John Riddle (1680-1745) and Elizabeth Bowman. Stephen had three brothers, Zachariah, John, and Benjamin II.
Zachariah moved to Virginia and later to Orange Co., North Carolina. [6]
