<DIV><FONT face=Arial>For the date of death, you could use "after 01 June 1830,"
the date the 1830 census was enumerated.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Three, last places to check for a date of death that
you would, of course, verify are the user-contributed databases at WorldConnect,
entries at FamilySearch.org, and the message boards for the surname and place
name at GenForum and at RootsWeb. You could also post a message to those boards
seeking the date of death and place of burial. Occasionally, I have received
credible information using those sites.</FONT></DIV>

date of death</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>In Bladen County, NC, both James WEST and his wife were
enumerated on the census of 1830 as being between 70 and 80 years of
age. <BR>There are no known tax records for that period in Bladen County
history. No further record of this James WEST has been found in Bladen County,
NC. It is supposed he died sometime around 1830. Known cemetery records have
been searched, to no avail. <BR><BR>Extensive searches of census, tax and
probate records in NC, SC, GA, TN and AL for that particular James WEST have
been done, finding nothing pertaining to him. <BR><BR>How do I write up
this information when doing an article/autobiography on this James WEST? What
do I use as his date of death?<BR><BR>I have searched google quite
unsuccessfuly in efforts to obtain answer to my question.
