I have traced the Watauga County Townsends back to Tryon, Lincoln and Cabarrus Counties. I found that in 1800 census for Cabarrus County a listing for a Aaron, William, Lewis, Charles and Dudley. In the Watauga County Townsends, I find later the names William Aaron, William Lewis, Charles, and James Dudley. It appears based on the tradition of naming children after their uncles and aunts that there may be a connection. Any help would be greatly apreciated.
