Hi, Haven't given up the search for the parents and siblings of Larkin Compton. Larkin was b. abt. 1796 in NC, according to census records. Larkin m. Becky Andrew 4 Nov 1818 in Guilford Co, NC; and they appear in the 1820 Guilford Co, NC census. The family eventually settled in Orange Co, IN, and the research here is coming along fairly well. The research in North Carolina has not been successful. I am working on the theory that Betsey Clumpton, who m. Tilmon Story 3 Feb 1817 in Guilford Co, NC, is a relative. Tilmon Story is in the 1830 Orange Co, IN census, bought land there, and Larkin was made guardian of his minor heirs in the late 1830's. There is also a possibility that the following may be siblings of Larkin, all the marriages took place in Guilford Co, NC. Minny Cumton Jessey Barsher 29 Aug 1797 Fanney Crumpton John Grissom 11 Sep 1819 James Crumpton Mary Whit 18 Feb 1825 Can anyone help? Lorena
