Transcription Notes:
[[note]]: Richard LEVISTER - seen on the 1850 and 1860 U.S. Censuses in Franklinton, Franklin, NC., which is where one of these images said he lived. He was also on the 1860 Fed. Slave Schedule as an owner of slaves. The PEARCE family lived around him. Found Berry PEARCE on the Censuses also. By the way, "Dr" does NOT mean "Doctor". I think it means "Delivered", as delivered these goods to Richard Levister. *Used |---: to right-align the dollar amts. This instruction was seen on previous instructions or Style Sheet before this most recent one, changed in Sept 2020.
