These data indicate:

Gender and Type	Age Class	Therefore Born	Individuals Inferred
1 free white male	16 or over	in or bef. 1774	= Charnel (b. by 1758)
1 free white male	15 or under	1774-1790	= Son A
2 free white females	all ages	in or bef. 1790	= Martha = Daughter A

The sixth column is the sum of the first five.  One or both of the children may have been from a prior marriage.  They are indexed as being in Edgecombe Twp., but I see nothing on the pages to indicate township, and all the Halifax records are in one group (i.e., no other townships or towns are given).  Also in Halifax County:  Mathuel CORBIN and William CORBIN.

*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.

Brunswick Co VA Deed book 13 p 430 John Ledbetter and his wife Eliz. of Wake Co., NC to Wm. Corbin of Brunswick  Co. 20 March 1779 for 60 lbs. VA 175 acres on N. side of Rattlennak Creek joining Harwood Clarey, James Ledbetter, Indean Head branch. Wit: Charnel Corbin, Tabitha Ledbetter, Wm. Ware (Ward). Proved 28 Feb. 1780

For Charnel to have been a witness, he had to have been of age (21) in 1779, which means he had to have been born by 1758.
