Need info from 1860 census Marion Co. James and Martha Bell. Known children Thomas Henry, Green, Elizabeth, John, James J., Isaac, Martha, Matida. There were more but this gives me a start. James and Martha were born in TN around 1820. Thanks for any help. G Bell

To G. Bell: I checked the census index and found Elizabeth Bell in Patoka, John Bell, Mathew Bell, and G.W. Bell all in Centralia, but no James. I checked various spellings and found a James BILL. In viewing the census images, I think the name may actually be BELL, but the handwriting is difficult to read. This may be your man. In Salem P.O. p. 641: James Bell, 40, (no occupation listed), Tennessee Jane, 36, Tennessee Henry, 17, Tennessee Green, 15, Tennessee Elisabeth, 13, Tennessee John, 11, Tennessee James, 9, Tennessee Matilda, 7, Tennessee Mary, 5, Illinois William, 3, Illinois Living next door: Jackson Bell (or Bill), 21, Tennessee Charlotte, 17, Illinois Hope this helps.
