I've recommended this to others, which may or may not be a practical solution for you. I've found that the levy court produced tax documents that sometimes revealed amazing details. Often when a young person came on to the roll because he came of age, the commisioner would note whose son this newby was. Simply put, they would say "James Morris, of John" or "of Neh". If you can get to Dover to view the records, its what I would recommend. The records sometimes skip 3-4 years at a time, but sometimes not, so you have records being produced more often then a census, and you can track individuals and their movements better, and sometimes gain info you wouldn't have otherwise.
