Thanks for your help and I agree that this person is not the Joseph H. Cherry I am looking for. Jerome ----- Original Message ----- From: Janelle Holmes To: CHERRY-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, March 24, 2001 10:40 AM Subject: Re: [CHERRY-L] Joseph H Cherry P. 241 of the actual census for Hardin County, Tenn, 1850, 13th Civil District, 18 Dec 1850, line 23, Joseph "W" Cherry, age 20, Grocery Keeper, bp TN listed in household of Thomas S Tenz? or Terry, age 28, Merchant, bp Tn, wife Mary age 30, bp VA, children James C age 3, bp TN daughter Martha age 1, bp TN along with Wiley S. McBride age 25 Clerk at Store bp TN and C. ? Cason? age 22, Merchant, bp TN So, this Joseph would have been born 1830 and is probably not your Joseph, Jerome. There are several Cherry's in Hardin County, mostly the 11th Civil District. -- Janelle Holmes Wildair Kennels Dripping Springs, TX
