Tribal Predominance Based on Names Only: North Carolina based on names only
appears much more mixed than all other states considered heretofore. No
single tribe predominating. The list of Moshe Davis indicated that Joseph
(Ephraim and Manasseh) were equal with Reuben and some input from Zebulon.
The more general list had Judah, Dan, Reuben, all about equal. Some of
Zebulon and all the other tribes.
