Surnames: SMITH, HIGGENBOTHAM Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VS.2ADE/755 Message Board Post: Thomas J. Smith (b.4Jun 1823 Ala) and his wife Sarah (Higgenbotham) were listed in the 1850 census with their sons Franis (Francis), Jasper, Andrew, and James. Does anyone have any connection, especially before the 1850 census. They moved to near Myrtle Miss before 1854. The children were listed as being born in Pickens, but I don't know counties for Sarah and Thomas.
