    3. Yes, Suzanne, I've tried every scenario possible. Thank you for writing back. I have thought about that Austin Bohannon. ??????? On the 1810 census, James has one child, male, u5. Robert does not have any children under 5 on that census. This child is the only one listed with James and female (Mary). Austin was born in Feb..........census later in year. That would be 5 years of marriage without children..............then on 1820 census there's about half a dozen children, and some that would have been born between 1805 and 1810. So -- could Robert's lst wife Elizabeth have died ?childbirth, and the child being cared for by James. Then, on the census there is a female in home of Robert close to age of Elizabeth, if she is living. If not Elizabeth ??............and Milly is MUCH younger. Milly came into the picture a few years before the marriage.............first child of Robert and Milly was born a few months before the marriage. It's said she was a neighbor brought in for household help. I also cannot place these two men...........I believe them to be brothers to each other........and who else ??? There is a Wilkerson KNOX and a Drury KNOX, both born in 1816 and 1817. Wilkerson is also on the estate settlement of Robert's 2nd wife Milly.......but can not put him in his place in the family. Surely would have been thoughtful of Robert and James to have left a will or/and an estate settlement !!!!!! Believe me, I have looked and looked. This KNOX family just goes round and round !!!!!
