    3. I believe the following Benj B. House, enumerated in the 1850 Lexington, Holmes, Mississippi Federal Census to be my g-g-g grandfather: Benj B. House 38 Farmer TN Elizabeth 35 TN *Frances 14 MS (My g-g grandmother) William 12 MS John 8 MS Elizabeth 7 MS Sarah 7 MS James 3 MS 1860, Middle Div., Dickson, Tennessee Ben House 49 TN Elizabeth 45 TN Frances 22 TN John 19 TN Sarah E 15 TN Elizabeth 15 TN James 13 TN Parilee? 6 TN I have not, as yet, located Benjamin and Elizabeth in 1870. But, I have located Elizabeth House in 1880 in Neely Twn, Butler, Missouri enumerated as widowed living near her daughter, Frances E. Lane. Frances E. House married a Mr. May abt 1860 most likely in Tennessee. They had one son Jacob W. May. Jacob states on numerous Census that his father was born in Mississippi. Frances later married Robert Lane abt 1862. They had the following children: Charles Owen, 1864; James R., 1868; John R. D., 1871; Johanna(Joella), 1873. In my hours of searching census on the House surname, I notice that there are gobs of Benjamins. Is there information anywhere on the various branches of the House family? I would love to share information on my Benjamin House and my research on his ancestors. In turn, if anyone can help me with his parents and siblings I would be so grateful. Yvonne
