In his journal of 1823, William Bartell mentions the following family names : Altma n, Ard, Belin, Bartell, Brown , Burkette , .Coleman, Cox, Eaddy, Godda rd , Hanna, Harrell, Johnson, McDaniel , Parsons, Poston, Powell, P rosser, Singletary, Smith, Stone, and others , such as Knox , for instance, no longer familiar in the area . Westward migrations , separating families or removing entire families, were not infrequent. Most of the families named above were related by marriage. Visiting , quilting parties, log rollings, deer drives, house a nd barn raisings drew families together. ''Frolics' ' at which dancing and drinking were the main entertainment relieved the tedium a nd auster ity of pioneer life. By the early 1830's Methodism had become a n active influence - and both dancing and drinking were discouraged by community religious leaders . and condemned by the circuit riders who traveled through holding meetings, usually at Dottson Stone's. Bar tell mentions attending religious services at Muddy Creek, probably a t the Haselden plantation , and other meetings at Dottson Stone's. The rise of Methodism in the area has not been fully explored and needs further research. Indiantown Presbyterian Church held a few families . The Presbyterian Church at Aimwell closed its doors about 1822, but the cemetery continued in use. Bartell writes on Jan. 15, 1823, that he ''went to Pee Dee River to burial of Captain Daniel Stone at Aim well meeting house." The life style of the planters were oriented toward river, swamp and the forested land.

The men fished every day possible. The catches were cleaned and preserved in brine. Bartell, who had mar ried Senea, daughter of Austin and E lizabeth Stone , had r emarkable ingenuity and industriousness attributable perhaps to his German ancestry . He does all the things that other fa rmers do in order to survive. But he has other skills. He makes fiddles . Music was essentia l to existence. He r ep a irs clocks, watches , guns, and farm bells.
