Does anybody know who this family is? 31 July 1850, Fayette co, VA, district 14 page 341 John Guinn, 43, farmer, all birthplaces blank Mary, 37 Eliza, 15 Nicias [or Niaias? maybe Niclas/Nicholas] A., 11 (male) Eveline, 7 [female] James, 4 Lucretia, 9 mos. This John was born about 1807. I cannot locate the family in 1860 with the possible exception of a Lucretia J. Guinn, age 11, living with Wm (40) and Mary E. (31) Taylor in Fayette co. In 1860, Summersville, Nicholas co, there is a Mary Ann Guinn, 48, born Monroe co, in the house of John (41) and Ida (52) Young - Ida also b. Monroe co, and a Lucretia Wood, 72, midwife, b. Monroe. Mary Ann *could* be the mother from the 1850 family, but if so, did the other youngsters die? She was not in Nicholas co in 1850. Then I start to think maybe Mary Ann and Ida are sisters and Lucretia Wood is their mother - note Mary in 1850 named a daughter Lucretia. So then I found a marriage that fits the place, time, and names - JOHN GUINN & MARY WOOD 27 April 1832 Fayette co. But who is he? John b. 1807 is too young to be the John who married Sally George (he was b. 1790). Fayette is so near Summers/Nicholas/Greenbrier that I would assume he is a descendant of Samuel of that area, but from whom? Thanks, Holly
