Research Notes

Death date of 1800 and location Gwinnett, Georgia, United States was on this profile, but there was no sourcing for this person to be in Georgia. Sources in Buckingham, Virginia after 1800.

1820 Census in Pittsylvania is probably different John Doss since there is also an 1830 Census in Pittsylvania that matches ages of 1820.

1830 and 1840 Census in Buckingham ages don't match since 1830 states age between 50 - 60 and 1840 has 85
