      !MARRIAGE BOND:17 Dec 1783 Rowan Co., NC
      Andy Brison* & Agnes Naill
      ---, bm illegible**
      * Signed Andrew Bryson
      ** For the transcribed book, the author translated bondsman as James Naill
      ** For the handwritten Rowan Co., NC marriage register, the clerk translated name as Sam. Naill
      ** In "The North Carolina Booklet" published July 1911, translated the name "Pamall(?) Nail"
      ** I can't tell myself, either Jas or Sam. would work. "Pamall" is certainly not corect, but it could be a badly rendered "Samuell." In fact, I think that's what it has to be;
