Transcriber's Notes:
Tyrrell County marriage bonds show the marriage of Jos. W. Tarkinton to Jenette Armstrong on 7 Mar 1836, Thos. B. Myers security.
Between Joseph W. Tarkenton being the administrator of Zebulon Tarkenton in 1834, Zebulon Tarkenton being security on the marriage bond of Joseph W. Tarkenton and Joseph namin his son Zebulon it is probable the Joseph is the son of the Zebulon who died in 1834.
