  • Notes 
    • The USGS GNIS has no reference to a “Yorkville”, South Carolina, but York, York County, South Carolina is supposed to occupy the same location. [2]
    • [Herndon-1950a] states that after John Herndon’s death Elizabeth Mealer lived with her eldest son Joseph in South Carolina. However at the time of the 1850 US Federal Census, she was living with her son William in Cleveland County, North Carolina., [2, 4]
    • In 1850, a 10 year old “Sophia Herndon,” probably Sophia Jane Herndon Elizabeth’s grand-daughter by her eldest son Joseph, is living in the Herndon household in Cleveland County, North Carolina. Why Sophia was living with her grandmother and the whereabouts of Joseph are unknown, but it is likely that Sophia’s mother had died by 1850, as Joseph had remarried sometime before 1849. [4]
