I have roots in Jackson and Marshall after it was formed. I look for parents of Robert Childress and also Delilah ? married in Jackson in 1830. They don't appear on any 1830 census I have found. They remained in Marshall until his death and Delilah does not appear on any census after 1860 as a Childress. My maternal grandparents were James Dove and Blanche William's. They lived near Russell cave in the Bridgeport/Orme area. James father was Jim Dove and Mother was Catherine Anderson. His siblings were Gilbert Buck Dove and sisters Winnie and Nan. My children's maternal grandparents were from Fabius. He was Lee Cox and married Veva Eaton. Veva's parents were Sam Eaton and Melvine Williams. I will share with my cousins what I have. This is a great web site and I enjoy the mail. Jim Childress (I lived in Jackson for 15 years.) now in New Orleans Grandpano@freewwweb.com
