Edgecombe County, North Carolina Vital Records, 1720-1880
Early Families of Edgecombe Co North Carolina, Its Past and Present
The Tarboro Society for Genealogy and Biography, 1881 compiled by Tarboro, NC Genealogy and Library Association
  Note from Susan:   While transcribing these records,  I found so many errors,  I considered not even posting them, but in  the
  end, decided to use it anyway.    Apparently,  even  though these records  were compiled over 100 years ago ... much of the
  information comes from early family genealogies,  and there are a lot of discrepancies.  

  You will note that Ailey / Ellie Barlow is consistently married to Laban  ...  whose dates of birth and death remain the same, 
  as  well as the names of  their  known children,  their  dates of birth and death,  but the surname  is changed,  being Ferrell, 
  Dunn,  Hathaway,  Peel, Steptoe, and finally Womack.   Deletha Ann Barlow's husband  is  always William, Sr.,  ..  the son's
  name  Samuel B.,  death date and place remains the same ...  but  the  surname changes  from  Cooper, Johnson, Murphy, 
  Speight and finally Valentine.

  As  with any other  undocumented records, use these as hints and clues as to where you might look  for your family, and find
  the actual document if it exists.

Just cause it's in a book, don't make it so!!
