Glasgow County, NC - 1793 Voter List ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1793 VOTERS LISTS COUNTY OF GLASGOW, NORTH CAROLINA The list presented here has been compiled from the 1793-1794 North Carolina General Assembly Records, Box 4, North Carolina Department of Archives and History. Two copies of the Glasgow voters list exist that apparently represent the results for the same election. The voter names on the list presented here were copied from the original that is referred to as "COPY A." The other original, referred to as "COPY B," had the same names but in a slightly different order. Additionally, the tally or voter response presented on this list is based on COPY B since it was too difficult to read on COPY A. In several cases, the two originals had differing spellings for the same voter. These differences are represented on the accompanying list with a dual spelling; e.g. Home/Holmes. Each original had different annotations as indicated next. Copied by Allen J. Barwick, Ph.
