* Where did all these slaves come from?
** Who were the free persons of color?;
*** Total adds up to 24, not 25
**** Probably Lydia Edwards (1760/65) Barnabas's mother. She was divorced from David Edwards in 1831, so probably already living away from him in 1830;

1f 10-14 (1825/30) = Daughter?
1f 0-4 (1835/40) = Catherine Edwards (c1838) daughter
*It appears the census taker lumped all three sons into one age group when that was incorrect.
**It's possible that William (c1825) never went to TN for he was back in Wayne Co., NC by 1850. If that's true, then this is an unidentied son probably born in the 1830's;
*** Probably Lydia Edwards (1760/65) Barnabas's mother
