  • Notes 
    • Norfleet Franklin Latham lived as a young man with the Norfleet family. He joined Mr. Norfleet in a small business in Goldsboro, N.C., but later built a home in the country and farmed.

      After the Confederacy surrendered he returned to his home and found that it had been burned to the ground by General Sherman's troops, and his wife and children living in a livestock lean-to. He, with neighbors in similar circumstances, rebuilt their homes and continued farming.
