1810 Census
The 1810 census was begun on 6 August 1810. The count was due within
nine months, but the due date was extended by law to ten months.
Questions
Asked in the 1810 Census
Name of family head; number of free white males and females in age categories:
0 to 10, 10 to 16, 16 to 26, 26 to 45, 45 and older; number of other free
persons except Indians not taxed; number of slaves; and town or district and
county of residence.
William Poe

Difficult to see where the line goes across.
It looks like
4 males under 10;
Then a fifth position, or 1 male over 44 (NOTE: This might be the
son of Simon Poe, Jr (d. 1773) who was born about
1770. This age be 4 years off in that case.)
I am not sure which line is for the females
family members
James
Poe
2 males under 10, 1 male 10/15; 1 male over 44
2 females under 10, 1 female 10/15; 1 female over 46
(James is believed to have married Sarah Petty. The middle
name of his son, Gabriel Perry Poe suggests that her name was Perry. Few
possible associations exist between the Perry and Poe families, however there
are many associations with the Petty family. See Poe/Petty

NC-39 This source
adds that James B. Poe* is son of William Poe and wife, Sarah (William's will
is dated 1830). This information would not be in the original marriage record
but is a finding of the author.
* Descendants
state the B stands for Bradford. The obituary for James B. Poe's son, William
Erastus Poe also states his father's name as James Bradford Poe.
see: http://poefamilyresearch.net/Poe/poefamily5/PoeWilliamMatildaKennedy.htm.
This family settled in Parke
County, Indiana.
This indicates
a connection to the family of Simon Poe, Sr. Simon Poe's son Stephen Poe
married Hannah Bradford and son Simon Poe, Jr. married Hannah's sister, Sophia
Bradford. This Bradford line is from King and Queen County, Virginia. Both
Stephen Poe and Simon Poe, Jr died in 1773 leaving
many sons who appointed guardians by the courts (they mostly appear to be
sons-in-law of Simon Poe, SR or close neighbors). The orphan of Stephen Poe
named William Poe was two years old in 1773. The William Poe of Guilford County
who died in 1830 could be this William. However, the DNA Project indicates that
James Poe of Guilford County who died in 1812 was a son of Simon Poe, JR. At
any rate, it is pretty clear that these Guilford County families are of the
Simon Poe, SR family. ALSO see 1851 documents below assigning John Clark
(Nancy's father) as guardians of the children of James B. Poe following an
untimely death. Note the several Clark connections among the records.

SARAH BOWMAN*
VS. THOMAS THOMPSON ET AL. 28 N.C. 167 (Dec. term, 1845)
Sarah Bowman seeks in this case to have dower assigned to
her in the lands that her late husband owned at the time of his death.
(Note: Dower is the
provision that the law makes for a widow out of her deceased husband's real
estate-- generally a life estate in one-third of of
the lands her husband owned while they were married.)
The jury at trial in county court of Guilford allotted
Bowman part of her late husband's land as her dower. Thomas Thompson and
others, who are the late husband's heirs at law, claim Bowman got too large a
share of the land and appealed to Guilford County Superior Court. Each side
presented affidavits, and the Superior Court, Judge Settle presiding at the
spring term, 1845, entered judgment in favor of Bowman. On the defendants' further
appeal, the Supreme Court affirmed the lower court decision. Judge Daniel wrote
the opinion, in which he notes that the affidavits presented in Superior Court
were not included in the record on appeal. Thus, there was no question of law
presented for Supreme Court review and the Court had no choice but to affirm
the judgment.

Excerpt of
letter from Carl & Lucy Clodfelter to Joan
McCarthy dated May 4th 1968 (from a photocopy of the original)
… I don't know
any farther back than Uncle Erastus Poe. The family farmed in Guilford County
near a small place called Summerfield.
…. I was only
6 years of age when he came in to visit his sister (my grandmother) [inserted
in what appears to be the same hand: in 1892]. Uncle Erastus' people had passed
away in except two of his sisters, Mary Carter and Harriet [inserted in what
appears to be the same hand: Robinson]. They did not live long after I learned
[of] them.
… my
grandmother died in 1906. After her departure we didn't see or hear from any of
her people and the rest of the close kin had passed away.

five acres,....adjoining the land of Wm. Watson*, Wm. Bowman, Esther

William Poe who died in 1830. Marriage record shows that William D. Poe married Sally Watson
