Marriage bond in Robeson County lists her as "Darley Baxley."Bondsman on the marriage was James Paul.
Bride: Darley Baxley
Groom: Moses Paul
Bond Date: 11 Feb 1830
County: Robeson
Record #: 01 126

Moses Paul and "James Baxlie" witnessed a marriage bond between John N. Baxley and Dicy Sled on 5 February 1835.Moses Paul was bondsman on a marriage between Sallie P. Currie and W.S. Conoly on 1 October 1866 in Robeson County.
He is on the 1840 Robeson County, NC, census.
The family is on the 1850 Robeson County, NC, census.Birthdates here are taken from that census.He and his wife are 35.She is listed as "Dolly."He and his son Henry are both listed as farmers.Listed in the dwelling just before theirs [374 and 375] is Daniel Baxley, 35(?) Possibly a brother or cousin of Dolly.Daniel's wife is Sarah, 34, and he has children Henry 14, Eliza 12, Franklin 9, Mary 7, Malachi 4, and Phillip 6/12.
A Moses Paul is on the 1860 and 1870 Robeson County, NC, census.
THEIR CHILDREN:
A Peter Paul was listed as bondsman on the marriage between "Dennis Baxly" and "Elizabeth Beney" in Robeson County, NC, on 5 April 1866.Given that this Peter Paul's mother was a Baxley, this could be a cousin, nephew, or other relative of his.
There is a Peter Paul on the 1870 Robeson County census (image 24/431).He is listed as 21 years old.With him are Ellen, 26, (possibly sister Eleanor?), Elias, 30, a turpentine distiller, and Sarah, 25.Possible that this is the correct family, with brothers and sisters living together?
