Gray Armstrong 1850 US Census

Image shows: Gray Armstrong 65, Amos I. 23, B.C. 12, J.B. 10, W.H. 8.

All are living in Edgecombe County, North Carolina, household number 153. Gray is a farmer with an estate worth 15,000. He cannot read or write.

Amos I. is Gray's son. B.C. (Benjamin Christopher Columbus), J.B. (Jolly Bunn) and W.H. (William H.) are Gray's son Micajah's sons. I have been told the three boys were living with their grandfather while their father, Micajah, served in the war. I am still looking for information on Micajah serving in the war and will post it when I find more information.
