    Notes:





    Some list Joseph as a son of William however:
    The only time Joseph is polled in Peters Creek is 1814 and is on another page than William. According to the laws of North Carolina, Joseph should have been polled no later than 1812, before his marriage not the year after. From the legal documents, Joseph was not in the Peters Creek District before 12 Jun 1813 when he obtained his Marriage Bond. Nor was Joseph in the tax district Samuel Sharp was living in or the StoneChimney/Stone Creek District for the years 1809-1813.

    Notes:

    West (Westley) Lankford, one in the same person, as a deed from Elisha Banner uses the two names interchangeably. By law, West should have been listed in the Poll tax records beginning in 1795 if his year of birth 1774 is correct. I still do not have 1803, 1804, 1805, 1806 Poll Tax records but West was not listed in the poll tax until 1807. He was possibly there from 1803 - 1806 but he was not listed from 1795-1802 when he should have been. There are only two possibilities to explain this - West was not born in 1774 or he was not in Stokes County prior to 1807 (maybe as early as 1803). By law, West had to be listed, because the poll was on every freeman. If a freeman did not have taxable property to a certain value, he still paid a tax unless exempted as an insolvent.
    I believe the date of his birth is 1784 not 74, and the two census records for 1850-60 (which is where the date comes from) is incorrect. With all the records and age of his wife, the age that makes sense is for him to have been born around 1784
