Looks like your James and Jennie Thornsbury were in Cannonsburg, Boyd Co., Ky in 1920. James Thornsbury 46, Jennie, 43; Susie, 14; Lillie, 17; George, 12; and Morris, 7. Morris was in the Wheelwright area of Floyd Co. in 1930, and his year of birth would be around 1901, but in the 1920 census he was 7, making his year of birth 1913. He is listed with wife Mary and children Russell and Myrtle. Jennie Moore Thornsbury died 27 Dec 1941 in Boyd Co., wife of James Thornsbury and daughter of Marshall Moore and Sue Mosley of Floyd Co., Ky. She was born 17 Dec 1872. Cause of death unknown, no physician present, died at age 68; burial in the Straits ?Crul. Cem., Boyd Co. Lillie was born 18 July 1912 in Boyd Co. That is the only birth record I found on Ancestry.com. Like Morris above, it doesn't match the age in the 1920 census, but Lillie is listed out of order. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2008 9:01 PM Subject: [KYFLOYD] James and Jennie (Moore) Thornsbury > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Author: kjziegler > Surnames: Moore, Thornsbury,McSurley,Hicks > Classification: queries > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.floyd/9719/mb.ashx > > Message Board Post: > > I am looking for any information on my great-great grandparents James > Thornsbury that married Jennie moore.

I remember Jim and Grace. I was born and raised in Emma until I went away to University of Ky. When I was little, my family always visited them and they always popped a pan of popcorn and we would listen to the radio, then TV as it became available.Morris and Mary L., as we called them, were good family friends too. Mary L. always kept coffee ready for visitors. If you send me your name and address I will give it to Jim and Grace's daughter Violetta via a lady at church. I am not kin, just an old family friend.

I am wondering if your Roland Sammons was also married to a lady named Frankie Carter? I show the date of marriage as 12 March, 1795. I may be wrong but I also show an Elizabeth Unknown as another wife and she could very well be your Elizabeth Philpot.
