Isaac Cary and Benjamin Robinett register to Vote

Our ancestors registered to vote. While they were only able to make an x next to their name, they did register to vote. According to these records, both men stated that they had been in Texas for 20 years. If 20 years is correct, then that would have made Isaac somewhere between the age of 10 and 20 when he arrived in Texas as a slave. Benjamin, I not sure at this moment, but he says that he birthplace was Missouri, while Isaac's was Virginia.
