1880 United States Federal
Census, Wayne, Brogden
District 295, p. 71 of 74 census pages |
|
Page 65 had been completed on the 29th of June. The
enumerator had not filled in the dates on the remaining pages
(including this p. 71), but signed the last page (p. 74) on
August 8, 1880, with an explanation that he was too busy to have
done so. F.F., Sallie, Wm., and James could read; FF and
Sallie could write. |

* I checked handwriting samples of this enumerator and found a
Francis and a Florence on p. 73, both look like Prancis Hefner
and Plorence Parker, so I believe "Purney" should be Furney...also,
looking at the top of page 71, Ida Anderson is listed for
male/female as "P" --his F's often looked like P's. |

The 1890 census is not
available. Much of it was destroyed by a fire at the Commerce
Department in Washington, DC on 10 January 1921, including the
Sampson County Census. |
|
James Henry Weeks and Mattie Harrell were married
on 02 Jun 1898 in Wayne County, NC.

1900 Sampson County Piney Grove
Township |
|
According to the census, James H. and
Mattie B. had been married 2 years and had one child (Arthur J.)
Other children are his by previous marriage.
It looks as though Mattie's age 19 had been marked out and
rewritten 18. Mamie (f.) was incorrectly transcribed as Maurice,
while Emma's spelling was listed as Emme. The 1st 6 could read
and write--none were attending school. They owned house
and land free of mortgage. The farm schedule was 98. |

Notice in the 1900 census, Mattie B. has one living child, Arthur J. one
year old. In the 1910 census there is another Arthur J., but he is
19, and James and Mattie have only been married 11 years, so this Arthur
must be from James's 2nd marriage...Interestingly, James Henry's oldest living son, Martin Luther
(transcribed Weeke), was
living in the previous house #112 |

1910 Sampson County Piney Grove Township
Enumerated by John M. Weeks on 06 May 1910
Supervisor's District 3, Enumeration District 94, Sheet 12 |

This census has been fascinating! In a span of 2 pages,
MANY families are represented! There were families of:
Bascom K. Weeks (son of James Henry's 2nd wife Sarah Adelaide)
Estella Weeks Sinclair (Estelle) (husband James Allen)
James Henry Weeks and Mattie B.
Sallie Harrell (Mattie's mother (Sally King Harrell) living with her
son's
family)
Lona Weeks Lindsay and husband Algia, and his parents (Jimmie
Devane Lindsay + Mary Sutton) next house
(I cut out the middle columns which stated birth in NC and
Language was English) |

Sally King Harrell
I found Mattie's mother Sally in the 1900 Wayne County Census
living as a widow near 2 other Harrell families. (By 1910,
she had moved to Sampson County) See her page for more
information.
