Source: Guardianship Bonds, Orange County, Nc, For Thomas, William and Abner Clark, Dated February 29, 1790, Nc Archives, Microfilm Cr.073.510.9
Written: February 27, 1790

“Know all men by these presents:
“That the James Carson, William Shepperd and John Taylor, Esqrs. are 
held and firmly bound unto the justices of Orange County Court of Pleas and 
Quarter Sessions in the sum of five hundred pounds to which payment well and 
truly to be made, to bind ourselves, our heirs and executors, and etc, jointly 
and severally, firmly by these presents, sealed with our hands and dated this 
27th February 1790.”

“The condition of the above obligation is such that whereas above bound 
James Carson is appointed guardian to THOMAS CLARK. Now if the said James 
Carson doth truly discharge his said guardianship agreeable to law, then the 
above obligation to be void, etc, to remain in full force and virtue. Signed, 
James Carson, William Shepperd, John Taylor.”

The same guardianship bonds are also made out for the brothers William 
and Abner, indicating that they were all three minor children. No such bonds 
were made out for the female children, who are believed to have reached 
marriageable age by this time. This also indicates that their mother had died.
