  • Note:
    The 1860 and 1870 census records I found for this family have problems (conflicts) with records in the family bible and 1880 census record. Some names changed between census years and some ages were given wrong. These are noted on the individual records.--Rose Lee Wall 2009

    At the time of the 1860 census, James was a farmer in Monroe County, Tennessee (PO Sweetwater). He had real estate valued at $300 and personal assets of $200. At the time of the 1870 census, he was a farm laborer in Monroe County, Tennessee (PO Tellico Plains). He had $175 in personal assets.

    By the time of the 1880 census, the family had moved to Travis County, Texas. James has a 1 year old son born in Tennessee, so the move was within the past year. (It was 1879 according to family notes.) James is listed as a farmer. His father's birthplace was shown as North Carolina, the mother's as Tennessee.

    The family moved to Star, Texas, in 1885.

    At the time of the 1900 census, James owned his farm in Mills County, Texas, free of any mortgage. Both parents were shown as born in Tennessee. By the time of the 1910 census, James had become widowed. He was listed with his daughter Martha'and her husband Charles Schwarz's family in Runnels County, Texas. He was shown to have his own income. This time he went back to the earlier report that his father was born in North Carolina, the mother in Tennessee.

    If you study my sources, you will see that I haven't done much research before the 1850 census. I have some material based on Bible entries, DAR applications, local history books, and wills for earlier periods but need to do a lot more work on the lines further out. Please contact me with updates and corrections.
