Source notes

^[2] For some reason, Mack Herron King seems to only have aged 4 years since the previous census while all of the other ages match up reasonably well.

^[3] Again, Mack Herron King seems to only have aged 6 years since the previous census [which itself was short]. He is now listed as 10 years behind his actual age. Nancy Grace Thomas is also listed 10 years too young here. The children's ages, however, are correct. The enumerator listed the daugher Robbie King as a son, "Robert."

^[4] Everyone's ages are now back in order. According to this census, Jetta King can read and write but not speak English, which seems a bit unlikely.

^[5] A total page by page search of York and Mecklenburg Co. census data found no trace of Nancy Grace King in 1910.
