Still trying to reconcile John C. "Jackson" Gentry, b. abt 1836. I have been through every 1850 Gentry census record from AL and GA. He died in 1862 (Civil War) but was listed in 1860 census from Newton Co., MS. I did find the following, all from 1850 census. Carroll Co., GA Richard Gentry, 44, blacksmith, b. SC Margarett, 34, GA John?, 17, GA Mary, 10, GA Phebe, 6, GA Jas? , 4, GA Permelia, 1, GA _______________________________________________________________ Cass Co., GA Jeremiah, 48, SC Sarah, 49, SC Allen, 22, GA Pinkney, 16, GA John, 13, GA Samuel, 12, GA William, 10, GA Elizabeth, 3, GA Mary, 1, GA ________________________________________________________________________ Paulding Co., GA John Gentry, 35, TN Jane, 35, TN Mary Ann, 17, GA John, 15, GA Elizia, 13, GA Jefferson, 11, GA Tass?, 9, GA Merrill, 7, GA Sarah E., 1, GA __________________________________________________________________________ If any of these John Gentry's ring a bell, please let me know.
