In the 1850 Fed. Census for Clinton Co., Il. Dist. 68 there is a James Ingram living with a man named War/Weir who is 25 yrs. old. This could be James' son or a grandson. In the 1860 Fed. Census for Little Piney, Phelps Co., Mo. War/Weir's name is now J. W. Ingram. Just guessing here: Old man James was married the 3rd time to a lady with the maiden name of Weir. There were two Weir families in Hopkins County, KY in 1830..I found with that spelling in the state of Kentucky. Andrew Weir and his wife (or the female presumed to be his wife) were 30-40, (I'd say closer to 30) Son under 5 Son 5-10, daughter under 5, 2 daughters 5-10. Ben G. Weir -3 males 20-30, 1 male under 5-, 1 female 20-30, assuming she is the wife of one of the males since there is a child. There were a number of Weirs in Kentucky in 1820. Does this ring any bells for anyone out there? Dianne Ingram in Oregon __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
