I had someone look up the 1830 and 1840 census. It showed in the 1830 census for Davidson Co. NC. John Wilson (age would be 34) 110001 and 1 female age 20-30, Elizabeth`s (age would be 29), The only child I have listed born before 1830 was Lydia, she was born 1828 so would probably be the child listed in the under 5 age group. It looks as if there is a child in the 5 to 10 group. So there could very well have been a child born before Lydia. All the others that I have were born after 1830. The 1840 census for Davidson Co. NC shows John Wilson Sr. (age would have been 44) 1101001---102101. I will check the other childrens years of birth and see how they match up. I have the names of the people living near them in both 1830 and 1940 if this would help any let me know. Elizabeth`s (age would have been 39).
