Transcriber's Notes:
Tyrrell County marriage bonds show the marriage of Isaac Alexander to Ann McCleas on 28 Oct 1806, Joseph McClees security; also the marriage of
Reddick Alexander to Esther Combs on 12 May 1830, Henry Norman security; also the marriage of Warren Alexander to Fanny Ethridge on 27 Feb 1832,
Richard D. Hassell security.
The slaves that belonged to the estate of this Isaac Alexander include all the slaves willed by Henry Alexander Senr. to his son Isaac Alexander in
Henry's will in 1816, so they are obviously one and the same.
