Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.

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)

I checked the Stokes County wensite. I am not sure about King and Walnut Cove but you are incredibly idioticly stupidly jerk-wrong about Danbury. You also are a jerk who gtes rid of the real per capitas. Danbury is not rich, jerks.

You clearly did not check the Stokes County web site. The Stokes County Web site gives the same 2003 BEA figure of $23,581 that you keep editing out. Please provide your source for what you call "the real per capitas," and if you are going to call someone a jerk would you please be kind enough to sign and date your comments? --Daltoni 20:23, 23 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No way it beat Davie County.

The BEA's figure for Davie County for the same year is $29,174. What are you trying to achieve? The BEA income figures are as authoritative and up to date as can be found. The $18,130 figure makes Stokes County look way poorer than it actually is. I believe the $18,130 figure must be from the early '90s. --Daltoni 29 June 2005 02:50 (UTC)

well what's the real per capita income for Surry County or Rockingham County or Caswell County or anything.

Check the bea: http://www.bea.gov/bea/regional/reis/drill.cfm --Daltoni 1 July 2005 01:57 (UTC)

Maps for the remaining towns[edit]

This is a good place to get the geographic coordinates for the {{Mapit-US-cityscale|36.3556936|-80.2878296}} template. It also sometimes provides the year of incorporation or other useful information. Niteowlneils 22:42, 19 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Double[edit]

Quit deleting Double. Wikipedia will do better if it talks about more places. There is a Double, North Carolina.

Then you need to present some reliable evidence that it exists. Such as the US Census. Antandrus (talk) 15:13, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

How are you sure it is census-designated. None of you live anywhere close to Stokes County, so I can't show it to you on a map!

Everything in Wikipedia needs to be verifiable. Provide us with some evidence that is verifiable, such as a map, on the internet, which says "Double, North Carolina" in a specific location that we can see. If it really exists, this should not be hard. Antandrus (talk) 15:18, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have a Stokes County map, but not one on the Internet, that shows Double. I am 100% sure it exists.

How old is it? It could be outdated. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 15:21, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It is sorta old, but when did Danbury have a population of 140? It definitely wasn't from 40 years ago?

You need to present us some evidence that it exists, not just your word for it. That's official site policy. Antandrus (talk) 15:44, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

John Stokes and Western North carolina US district[edit]

I removed the reference to Western North Carolina, and made in North Carolina since according the state library citation I found "Washington appointed him a judge of the United States District Court of North Carolina", and the History of U.S. District Courts says there was only one district until 1794, which was after John Stokes died Salsb 19:23, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
