x. JOSEPH SIZEMORE, b. Abt. 1775; d. August 05, 1851, Stokes Co., N.C..

There has been debate as to whether or not "Dr. Johnny Gourd" was a native American. He has been called an "old Indian doctor" but testimonies in the Guion-Miller trials attested that he was not Cherokee.

On the 1850 US Census, he is living in Stokes County with his wife, Nelly, and two sons: William H & John. His occupation is...yes, "WITCH DOCTOR".
