Hey, it's only speculation! (But it happened a lot with my family in Chilton Co.) And AGAIN WHERE IS MY L J > MARTIN ON THE 1860 CENSUS! *****Maybe she wasn't born yet in 1860, or was born after the census taker came. It wasn't uncommon for their ages to change 2 or 3 years for every census. Based on census records, my great grandfather was born in 1862 or 1864 and on records we have for his wife she was born in either 1870 or 1867 or 1868. No PROOF of any of the dates, but we have evidence that she was born and evidence that she died. Just no PROOF! Isn't this fun!? > Is the 1860 Bibb census on the internet? > Not that I know of - Sorry! Carol
