Father*Gabriel Merritt b. b 1784, d. c 1820

Birth*1816Sampson County, North Carolina, USA; date per Merritt book.2,3 
(Heir) Will3 June 1820(Testator) Gabriel Merritt; Sampson County, North Carolina, USA; Gabriel Merritt's will names his wife Sally, son Wright, daughter Tempy Jane. Brother Patrick is named executor. Witnessed by John Bryan and David Merritt. In a petition to the court in February 1821, after Gabriel's death, wife Sally declared that the amount provided her (165 acres, goods, and a slave) was insufficient and that she was entitled to dower, identifying specific land.2 
(Groom) Marriage*15 January 1843(Bride) Mary Vickers; Randolph County, Georgia, USA; mariage date is from an ancestry.com user who did not provide sources. Randolph County marriage records show a marriage license issued to Wright Merritt and Mary Vickers on 13 January 1843 
(Neighbor) Census16 December 1850(Head of Household) Sarah Thornton; household 14, District 3, census page 3, Baker County, Georgia, USA; "Sarah Merritt", head, age 50, real estate value $900, born Sampson Co NC;
"Henry Merritt", age 20, farmer, born Sampson Co NC;
"Garrison Merritt", age 17, farmer, born Sampson Co NC;

Neighbors: Sarah's son Wright Merritt (b1816) born Sampson County, and family; Kitty Ann Tipton (b1828) and family of Sampson County (assumed Sarah's daughter); her son David Merritt (b1824) and family of Sampson County; Lewis Bowen (b. 1815) of Sampson County.

Thomas Tipton married Sarah's daughter Tempy Jane in 1836 but Tempy Jane was not present in this census. One researcher reports that she died in childbirth. The Tipton children in the household are inferred as Thomas' and Tempy Jane's. Kitty Merritt Tipton lived separately next door with two young children. Without knowing the reason for these living arrangements, it may be that Kitty married Thomas after Tempy Jane's death and that the two young children living with her are theirs.1
