County, James
Poe (d. 1812) and William Poe (d. 1830), were brothers, which is supported by DNA of descendants.

1810
Census
The 1810 census was begun on 6 August 1810. The count was
due within nine months, but the due date was extended by law to ten months.
Questions
Asked in the 1810 Census
Name of family head; number of free white males and females in age categories:
0 to 10, 10 to 16, 16 to 26, 26 to 45, 45 and older; number of other free
persons except Indians not taxed; number of slaves; and town or district and
county of residence.
William Poe
Difficult to see where the line goes across. It looks like
4
males under 10;
Then
a fifth position, or 1 male over 44 (NOTE: This might be the son of Simon Poe, Jr (d. 1773)
who was born about 1770. This age would be 4 years off in that case.)
James Poe
2
males under 10, 1 male 10/15; 1 male
over 44
2
females under 10, 1 female 10/15; 1 female over 46
(James
is believed to have married Sarah Petty. The middle name of his son, Gabriel
Perry Poe suggests that her name was Perry. Few possible associations exist
between the Perry and Poe families, however there are many associations with
the Petty family.

A couple of records from Chatham County mention Horse Pen Lick
Spring. Cannot determine if this is the same body of water.
Also, note Clark family. Nancy Clark, daughter of John Clark,
married James B. Poe, probably son to William Poe, d. 1830 Guilford
County, and possibly brother of James
Poe (d. 1812) who married Sarah (Petty).

#: 02 356 Bondsman: John B Clark
Witness: W W Woodburn
C Bond #: 000058846
NC-39 This source adds that James B. Poe* is son of
William Poe and wife, Sarah (William's will is dated 1830). This information
would not be in the original marriage record but is a finding of the author.
* Descendants state the B stands for Bradford. The obituary for
James B. Poe's son, William
Erastus Poe also states his father's name as James Bradford Poe.
see: http://www.poegen.net/IN/PoeWilliamMatildaKennedy.htm.
This family settled in Parke
County, Indiana.
This indicates a connection to the family of Simon Poe, Sr.
Simon Poe's son Stephen Poe married Hannah Bradford and son Simon Poe, Jr.
married Hannah's sister, Sophia Bradford. This Bradford line is from King and
Queen County, Virginia. Both Stephen Poe and Simon Poe, Jr died in 1773 leaving
many sons who appointed guardians by the courts (they mostly appear to be
sons-in-law of Simon Poe, SR or close neighbors). The orphan of Stephen Poe
named William Poe was two years old in 1773. The William Poe of Guilford County
who died in 1830 could be this William. However, the DNA Project indicates that
James Poe of Guilford County who died in 1812 was a son of Simon Poe, JR. At
any rate, it is pretty clear that these Guilford County families are of the
Simon Poe, SR family. ALSO see 1851 documents below assigning John Clark
(Nancy's father) as guardians of the children of James B. Poe following an
untimely death. Note the several Clark connections among the records.

SARAH BOWMAN* VS. THOMAS THOMPSON ET AL. 28 N.C. 167
(Dec. term, 1845)
Sarah
Bowman seeks in this case to have dower assigned to her in the lands that her
late husband owned at the time of his death.
(Note: Dower is the provision that the law
makes for a widow out of her deceased husband's real estate-- generally a life
estate in one-third of of the lands her husband owned
while they were married.)
The
jury at trial in county court of Guilford allotted Bowman part of her late
husband's land as her dower. Thomas Thompson and others, who are the
late husband's heirs at law, claim Bowman got too large a share of the land and
appealed to Guilford County Superior Court. Each side presented affidavits, and
the Superior Court, Judge Settle presiding at the spring term, 1845, entered
judgment in favor of Bowman. On the defendants' further appeal, the Supreme
Court affirmed the lower court decision. Judge Daniel wrote the opinion, in
which he notes that the affidavits presented in Superior Court were not
included in the record on appeal. Thus, there was no question of law presented
for Supreme Court review and the Court had no choice but to affirm the
judgment.

Excerpt of letter from Carl & Lucy Clodfelter
to Joan McCarthy dated May 4th 1968 (from a photocopy of the original)
… I don't know any farther back than Uncle Erastus Poe. The
family farmed in Guilford County near a small place called Summerfield.
…. I was only 6 years of age when he came in to visit his sister
(my grandmother) [inserted in what appears to be the same hand: in 1892]. Uncle
Erastus' people had passed away in except two of his sisters, Mary Carter and
Harriet [inserted in what appears to be the same hand: Robinson]. They did not
live long after I learned [of] them.
… my grandmother died in 1906. After her departure we didn't see
or hear from any of her people and the rest of the close kin had passed away.

Notice.
Sale of a Valuable Tract of Land and other Property. The subscriber will offer
at public sale on the 13th of February next, his valuable tract of land lying
in the county of Guilford, on the head waters of Horsepen
creek, containing one hundred and fifty five acres,....adjoining the land
of Wm. Watson*, Wm. Bowman, Esther Clemmons, Absalom Pegg,
Milton Hunt, and others... William D. Poe
* Note above. This must be William Poe son of William Poe who
died in 1830. Marriage record shows that William D. Poe married Sally Watson
Bond Date: 05 Jan 1833. Also, it probably is coincidence, but a hundred and ten
years earlier, in 1737, a William Watson was co-warrant applicant with William
Poe (wife Lydia) in Culpeper County, Virginia. Both men were re-locating from
Caroline County, Virginia.
