Transcriber's Notes:
It appears from these court minutes that Isaac Carroon Junr. died in 1788 and his son Isaac Carroon died in 1789. It would be difficult to determine which Isaac Carroon some of the later minutes refer to, so all entries are left together in this file.
Tyrrell County marriage bonds show the marriage of Henry Holmes to Comfort Carroon on 28 Apr 1791, Thomas Hopkins security. Since Henry Holmes received a share of the estate, he must have previously been married to a sister of Comfort Carroon. Tyrrell County marriage bonds also show the marriage of Reuben McDaniel to Alice Carron on 9 Apr 1789, Henry Holmes security.
