... Apparently Thomas Grant and Winny Mozingo must have lived together. They did live in the same township "Newhope" I have a record that his wife-Susannah divorced him in 1826. He and Winny were in court twice once in 1827 and the other 1830. The last record I have for him was 1834. Don't know if he died or migrated away from the area????

...I ran this by Marty too and this was his reply..

The 1830 census was alphabetical so I can't tell who was neighbors to whom.
I think Capt. A. Whitfield's District encompassed present day New Hope Township which is north of the Neuse river and east of Goldsboro. Most of the Wayne County Grants were in that district in 1830 and most of them lived in or around New Hope. I was just there on Thursday passing through.

Sarah Mozingo and Edward Mozingo were listed in that district in 1830, but not Winney. She wasn't listed at all, at least not as a head of household. She was probably living with someone else at the time. It is entirely possible she was with Thomas Grant. Consider his household:

1 male 40-49 (1780/90) = Thomas Grant
1 male 5-9 (1820/25) = son?
2 males 0-4 (1825/30) = sons? (Mark and Thomas Mozingo, born ca 1829)
1 female 30-39 (1790/1800) = wife? (not Susan for they were already divorced, perhaps Winny?)
1 female 5-9 (1820/25) = daughter?

That could be Winny and Mark & Thomas and two other of her children living with Thomas Grant in 1830. No way to be sure, but it does fit.
