1 free white females all ages in or bef. 1790 = wife? daughter?
This obviously is not our subject, but who is he?  Surely he is related to the Young STOKES in Montgomery Co., NC, in 1880.  List roughly alphabetized.

1 female 16-25 1774-1784 = Sarah (b. 1780-84)
This, too, is not our subject, if the 1810 record is correct.  On the other hand, if the two girls in 1810 aren't their daughters, this could be our subjects.  List roughly alphabetized, and pages are out of order.

*In the 1820 Census, the third column is age class 16-18 and the fourth column is age class 16-25; therefore, any individual in column three is duplicated in column four.  By subtracting the number in column three from the number in column four, you can create an age class "19-25."
He is the only STOKES in the county.
