I had identified another secondary compilation of Mecklenburg, NC, militia lists from the War of 1812 within this post:
"A Note About Mecklenburg Militia Participants in the War of 1812" (14 Jun 2015 7:15PM GMT)
http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.roper/1903.10/mb.ashxThomas ROPER does NOT appear within these lists, nor does any other Mecklenburg ROPER, however the lists do further inform us as to names of some Mecklenburg citizens whose names do not appear within the lists of heads of households for 1810 or 1820.
