    1. Avery, Gibson County, TN 1870
    2. I am trying to find Demetra Avery who was born in March, 1860. I have a copy of a page of the 1870 Gibson County, TN. Census. Demetra Avery's father was struck by lightening and died. Not sure when her Mother died, but my 90 year old aunt says that Demetra Avery was raised by her brother, Sidney Avery. If ANYONE recognizes any of these names from this census, I would appreciate any help! 1870, Gibson County, Robinsonville Post office, August 9, 1870: #2626 (can't read this name) (looks like): McIsun/McIsirn, I. F., 38, M, White, Farmer, Born in TN. (looks like) Minnie, 62, F, White, at home, born in N. C. Avery, Mattie/Mattee, 23, F, White, at home, born in TN. (looks like) Malissa, 21, F, White, at home, born in TN. (look like) Cornelia, 21, F, White, at home , born in TN. Sidney, 19, M, White, Farmer, born in TN Isabelle, 19, F, White, at home, born in TN (Sidney's wife???) (could this be short for Demetra??????) Metsy, 11, F, white, born in TN. Lizzy, 9, F, White, at home, born in TN. If anyone knows anything about this family.....even if it proves that I am barking up the wrong tree, that will be fine, too. To prove anything, either way, would be progress. Thank you very much! Marsha Owen
