From Susie Kinserlow:
Barb. Apparently they stayed
in Cleveland County, NC. On 1870 census Monroe was living with the A Leadman family in Cleveland page 101B - image 199 on
Ancestry. He was 14. Thomas was 16 and living with a John W. Wiley and wife. He said he was 16 years old. Census was taken
in August 1870. I found a William White 65, wife Susannah 57, William B. 21,
Barbary 30, Nancy 28 or 38 if this Jere's Nancy she should be 34. On 1880 census, Nancy
White 48, should be 44, Monroe 20, should be 22, Georgia 6, this means she was born about nine years after Jeremiah died.
Since most people could not read or write at that time all they had to go on was memory and as you know it gets worse with
age. Incidentally they were still in Cleveland County.
