  1. Some of the information in this Census is wrong. Lucretia Brock was my great great aunt; my great grandfather was Squire Kirby, her brother. Elma M is really Elmer Manning Brock Sr. who moved to High Point, NC. He had four children. I work with his grandson in Randolph County Schools in NC. He did have a daughter Getrude Brock who married Thomas Hildredth Brock. Edmond B is Edwin Benjamin "Bennie" Brock. They also had two more daughters, Ruby Brock b 1922 and Dallas Brock b 1924. the Census report that I found said that Dallas was a female, but I am having a hard time trying to find information.Lucretia "cressie", getrude, and edwin are buried at Brocks Mill Baptist. They are towards the middle, but near the fence. Elmer and his son, Elmer Jr. are buried in Floral Gardens in High Point, NC I think Lucretia had a twin sister Loucrefine but I can not find any information except for the 1900 Census on MyTree. I do not know if they completed the census report correctly or if the census report was changed. I would love to find out where Zannie is buried. Thank you for the information. It has helped me with a lot of my family research.
