message: Does anyone else think that Price should be added onto the list of unincorporated communities? Cause I tried adding it and it was taken out. I still think it should be included since it has a Wikipedia page of its own and it says it is in Rockingham County. Also, I think the names of the unincorporated communities here need to be reorganized into alphabetical order. NintendoTTTEfan2005 (talk) 06:32, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

message: The sentence "People in North Carolina were still fond of [Wentworth] in the years following the independence of the United States" is indeed an odd one. I can consult the Heritage of Rockingham County book in the future to see if it offers some clarity on the issue. In my recollection , this statement is broadly true to historical fact. NCPedia states that Wentworth was "the British prime minister at the time of the repeal of the Stamp Act and a supporter of American Independence". I'm not sure the all the gritty details on his persuasion of the House of Commons to repeal the Stamp Act is really needed, but I'll look into it, though I doubt a blanket statement to the effect of the people of North Carolina broadly admired Charles of Wentworth is really warranted without some tweaking. -Indy beetle (talk) 10:05, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

The per capita income of Stokes County is not $55,200. It is $18,130. See the census page for the county: http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/37/37169.html
I made several changes in the Stokes page today. The per capita income figure of $23,581 is the latest figure available from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. By the way I've brought property for a retirement home in Stokes County, so I'm very familiar with the country.
I checked the website.You're wrong about the town per capitas.
Checked what web site? According the the Bureau or Economic Analysis (www.bea.gov), the per capital personal income for Stokes County in 2003 (the latest year for which the BEA has figures) is $23,581. --Daltoni 02:59, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: According to one of my sources for the article I created on former Argonia, Kansas Mayor Susanna M. Salter, she was born near Lamira, Ohio in rural Belmont County in 1860, however this article does mention any city or town by that name. This raises some questions:
* Have county boundaries changed since 1860, moving "Lamira" outside of present-day Belmont County?
* Has the town's name been changed since 1860, and if so what is the correct name?
* Is it simply the case that a Wikipedia article on Lamira, Ohio has not been created?
