Aug., 2000 David is believed to have been born about 1755 but he could have been born earlier, since I believe this was made on the assumption that David was the son of William Mayo and his wife Judith who later married Hilliary Manning. From: "Edgecombe County Will Abstracts 1824-1857" pg 65 (274) David Mayo 25 Feb 1832 Fec Ct 1834 O F/154 "....being in a decline of health..." To Levi Mayo, Negro Berry aged twenty years. To Martha Brown, bed and life estate in Negro Pegga, and if she leaves and heir this Negro shall fall to that heir, otherwise it shall return to Elizabeth, Lizer and Lydia WILKERSON, my grandchildren.

Wife Sarah MAYO, lend Negroes Tom, Henry, Rose, Wilson, Lemuel, Vina, and Julan, and at her death they are to be sold and proceeds divided between Levi Mayo, Pegga Harrell, Martha Leewis, Lucy Lawrence, Martha Brown, Elizabeth, Lizer and Lydia Wilkerson.
