Surry County NC
Does anyone have ANY information regarding these TOLBERT individuals?
1850 Surry County NC Federal Census, North Div. Hotel District, Dwelling #859, Head of Household - Columbus Franklin, includes what appears to be 3 families of borders - Emeline Buchanon and siblings, Elizabeth Church and siblings, and -
Salora Tolbert age 17 and siblings Eliza age 14 and Calvin (laborer) age 16.
On one of my mother's handwritten notes she had written the name Calvin as a brother to John Tolbert (b-1831; spouse of Caroline White, residents of Caldwell Co NC), but scratched through it (reason unknown).I am wondering if Salora, Eliza and Calvin are "waiting" for their brother John or parents to come get them since this appears to be temporary housing?
Is it possible it is not SALORA, but Salena?The handwriting is pretty clear and it does appear to be an R-Salora.
Any information is appreciated.You are welcome to contact me directly.
Thank you,
Dianne
