 | Jacob Thomas Deal (1816-1895) F.A. Sondley, "A Brief History of Buncombe County, NC" (1927) p. 1
This three-page essay was part of a booklet that was issued by Buncombe County to commemorate the dedication in 1927 of yet another new court house in Asheville, NC.
Jacob Thomas Deal, according to family tradition, donated land for an early court house in Asheville, NC. Sondley provided the names of donors and sellers of land occupied through 1833 by the town square and court houses, but not those after 1840, when the Deal family arrived in the Asheville, NC area.
In the first page, Sondley sketched events from the Spanish exploration in 1540 to the formation of Rutherford County in 1779, from which Buncombe was taken later. |

 | Jacob Thomas Deal (1816-1895) F.A. Sondley, "A Brief History of Buncombe County, NC" (1927) p. 2
Sondley described the formation (1792) of, and subsequent subtractions from, Buncombe County as population increased and other counties were formed from the original Buncombe County.
The author then devoted the remainder of the essay to a detailed history of the land and buildings used for the town square and court houses. On page two, he described the delays occasioned by disagreements among the members of the committee who would select the exact location of Asheville. |

 | Jacob Thomas Deal (1816-1895) F.A. Sondley, "A Brief History of Buncombe County, NC" (1927) p. 3
"The first court house of the County [1792] was a log structure across the head of [present day] Patton Avenue at the place where that avenue entered Main Street or the Public Square. At that court house was held the first court which met in what is now Asheville. The land of Samuel Chunn and Zebulen Baird on which this court house was constructed was that part of the Public Square immediately in front of the Thomas building on the western side of the Public Square . . ."
The original site of the log court house was enlarged twice before the Deal family arrived in 1840: in 1807 for a more permanent structure in a public square and between 1825 and 1833 for the construction of the first brick court house. It appears that the town of Asheville was more settled in 1840 than later generations of Deals believed.
It is possible that some portion of the land owned by Jacob Thomas Deal was donated in the late 1840s for the expansion of the Public Square to accommodate what Sondley described as "a handsome brick building which was constructed in 1850. . . ." In any case, the Deal family moved to Mississippi before the new court house was completed.
Sondley provided the name of the builder, but not the names of those who contributed land before construction began. He noted that this "handsome brick building" was gutted by fire in 1865 and was replaced by a lessor structure, "a small one-story house."

 | Jacob Thomas Deal (1816-1985) family during the Civil War p. 2
More information about the incident with "Doc Raeburn" was provided on page eleven of Nora Deal Foster, "The Origin of the Name (1949)":
"By Emmadell High William (This account was told to Emmadell by her grandfather, James High, who married Emma Deal, a daughter of Jacob [Thomas] and Frances [Lavina] Deal)
Doc Raeburn was a Southern spy during the Civil War in this section of the country. He was a terror to the Yankees because at night when they would have meetings, he and his little band of followers would break into them. It is said that he was a small man and would often dress like a woman and go to the Yankee's dances and in that way would often find out some of their plans and then he and his followers would break into them.
One night he broke into them and did considerable damages. The next morning he was sitting on his horse in front of Grandfather's house, about ten miles north of Brownsville, where the Yankees were stationed. He was talking to a member of the family, when all of a sudden a band of Yankees, who were hunting him, appeared in sight, and began shooting at him. He fell over on the side of his horse, dodging the bullets and started running. They followed him into the woods, but he escaped. They thought he had been hiding at Grandfather Deal's and after they failed to capture him they came back, freed [Grandfather's] slaves, burned his cotton gin, destroyed his brick kilns, took his horses and mules, and drove off his cattle to help feed the Union soldiers. All that was left was one mule. Jacob Deal never recovered financially.
Doc Raeburn died, still a young man, shortly after the close of the war."

Rebekah also supplied this link to the biography of Howel A. "Doc" Rayburn, the Confederate hero who was chased off Jacob Thomas Deal's place by Union troops:
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com:80/~arprairi/DocRay.htm
The incident may have occurred after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect:
". . . the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free . . .to wit:
Arkansas . . ."

If so, slaves in Arkansas were legally free, but still in bondage unless Union troops acted to secure their freedom.
