Transcriber's Notes:
Tyrrell County marriage bonds show the marriage of John Walker to Keziah Tarkinton on 21 Mar 1832, Caleb Walker security; also the marriage
of Keziah Walker to John Liverman on 27 Jan 1851, William Dunbar security.
The Tyrrell County 1850 census shows a Keziah Walker, age 37, living in the family of Miles Liverman who has a son, John M. Liverman,
age 29. The 1860 census shows John Liverman, age 38, with Keziah Liverman, age 49, and Sarah Liverman, age 24 and other children. Sarah is
probably actually Sarah Walker since she is too old to be a daughter of John Liverman.
There is also a Sarah Walker, age 15, living in the family of Thomas J. Cooper, age 32, whose wife is Elizabeth Ann Walker, age 25.
