• Notes

  NOTES: For the Death record - I have searched high and low but cannot find a town called BRICK(*). Wiki gives this:- The county is divided into fourteen townships, which are both numbered and named: 1 (Tarboro), 2 (Lower Conetoe), 3 (Upper Conetoe), 4 (Deep Creek), 5 (Lower Fishing Creek), 6 (Upper Fishing Creek), 7 (Swift Creek), 8 (Sparta), 9 (Otter Creek), 10 (Lower Town Creek), 11 (Walnut Creek), 12 (Rocky Mount), 13 (Cokey), and 14 (Upper Town Creek). ~ Its also hard to believe the stated date of birth as this now gives 3 bothers (supposedly seperated by about 2 years each in the census - but just seperated by only a few months in their various death records. Albert, Cornelius and now Henry - Very weird. NEW - Just found the 1920 Census where Henry is age 44 (abt.1876) which confirms my belief he was born 1876/1877 and NOT 1873.
