August 7, 1845 Granville County, N.C. Brassfields Voter Lists For

Election Of Member Of Congress, Superior Court Clerk &

County Court Clerk

 

Summarized by Harold A. Lloyd

 

The original two sets of the following lists are in the N.C. Archives in Raleigh, N.C.  They give a useful look at the voting age males living in that area in August of 1845.

 

I have compared the writing on the two sets to come up with the following list.  Anyone wanting a lesson in penmanship of the era as well as the inaccuracies of lists could hardly do better than comparing the similarities and differences between these two lists purporting to contain the same numbered information.

 

As the handwriting is often difficult to decipher and as the lists are not mirror images of each other, I caution the reader that this summary is imperfect.  I would enjoy hearing any corrections.

August 1845 & 1853 Granville County Voter Lists--Young’s Crossroads

Transcribed by Harold A. Lloyd

The North Carolina State Archives in Raleigh holds lists containing the following voters for the following elections. The penmanship is often difficult to read and the transcription may therefore contain errors. Complicating this, duplicate numbered lists were kept by different persons in some cases and these often differed radically forcing me to interpolate between them as best I could. I would enjoy hearing from anyone with corrections or comments.
