John Venable, Jr. are my 3g grandparents. Their children are Julia, Martha, Mary, Martin (my line), John, Deborah, Sarah, Thomas, Richard & Louisa. Most of this is from other's research. In the 1850 census for Floyd, IN, John is listed with his family, as a farmer who can read and write. I'd love to share.
