    1. Re: 1870 Harlan County Census Lookup
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Lewis Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3AB.2ACI/5736.2 Message Board Post: Jerry Lewis--8 is listed in the Johnson Co. census record for 1870 rather than the Harlan Co. Census. Parents are James--53 and Paulina--44 with sibs Drusilla--20, Jacob--14, Sidney--11, and George--4. In 1860 this family is in Harlan Co. I believe they have the wrong age for James in this census record because in 1860 he is 53 and in 1880 he is 73. (In 1880 James, Perlinia, and Jerry are in Letcher Co. I believe this is where James dies.) I'm trying to find some info on James' parents. I keep going around and around. There seems to be a connection to John Lewis, Jr. and Abner Lewis, Sr. They are next door to him in the 1860 census. There are also similar names in the families, but I can't seem to make a connection. I'd appreciate any info you might have. Thanks!!
