Thank you very much. We have been searching for him or I should say his parents for a long time with no luck. Another wonderful person on one of the other mailing list did find my Julia in the 1850 Pulaski County, VA census records. I felt really dumb when they did find her since I had been over the census many times and obvious over looked her every time. Any help that can be given to me and my one cousin would be very much appreciated since my cousins mother is 84 and is the great granddaughter of Jesse and has also been looking but cannot find anything. Also, if you find that Jesse is in your line, I have a picture of him and his wife Julia that I can send you if you want it. Thank you for looking, Esther
