The number is the number of white males over 16 years of age; the letter refers to the tax district, which in the case of the Baileys was north of Walker Mountain.
The paterfamilias is Richard sr; all the others are his sons except for Jesse - I haven't figured out to whom Jesse belongs.  All the Baileys signed at least one of the petitions to form Tazewell County (there were four altogether, from 1796 - 1799); Jesse Bailey also signed one petition - as did an Elizabeth Bailey (and I don't know to whom she belongs either).
