Nathaniel is identified as the son of Noah and Susannah Page on his marriage record, having been born in what is most likely Caswell, North Carolina (the transcribed spelling on the record is a place that has never existed).[1]
Nathaniel Page and Sarah Williams (born in 1834), daughter of James and Rebecca Williams, registered their marriage on 30 Aug 1855 in Virginia.[1]
In the 1860,[2] 1870, 1880[3] Scott County, Virginia census, we find his birth state of North Carolina confirmed, Sarah in the household, and not until 1870, a son:[4]
Samuel T Page, whose marriage registration of 20 Nov 1874 to Louisa Lane, daughter of Samuel and Nancy Lane, was also in Scott, Virginia;[5] however, it should be noted that this marriage record of Samuel names his mother as R Stone

I highly recommend detaching Herod as a son.

Best of luck with updates and searches!
