Notes:
I have not proven that Charles Mayo is the father of Reuben H. Mayo. However, a review of census records from 1820 to 1850 reveal that Charles, Reuben, John W., and Allen are found very near each other in each census. In addition, James Dyal has collaborated with a Mayo researcher in Florida, Luman M. Mayo. Records that L. M. Mayo sent to James Dyal suggest this same tie, as well as stating that Charles Mayo is the son of Mark Mayo.
Charles moved his family to South Alabama abt 1815.
A Joseph Mayo appears on the 1819 Conecuh County, Alabama tax rolls and on the 1820 Conecuh County Territorial Census (with four males under 21 and one female under 21). He may be either Charles’ son or brother.Children:
