RESPONSE: Based upon these census listings, there is probably enough information to support which Annie MESSER she was. First for some reason, I am missing a page in my 1900 Bell Co. Fed. Census Book and it is the very page I need. Here is what I show from the Index: ED12 - 1900 Dwelling 47 MESSER, James . . Rachel . . Anner * * * . . Corda . . Lonnor . . Pearlie . . Rachel At Dwelling ED12 - Dwelling 30 is the listing for Steven D. MESSER and his wife, Rebecca and their children. I know you have that listing. They are so close they are probably related. Returning to the 1910 and the James MeSSER family : Dwelling 0031 - ED 0020 MESSER, james, 45 . . Rachel, 42, wife . . Anna, 21, KY * * * . . Andrew, 19 . . Lonna, 14 . . Pearl, 12 . . Grant, 10 . . plus one non-relative Returning to the 1900 Bell Co. and in ED12, Dwelling 26 SMITH, Elijah, 51 . . Lucindy, wife, 37 . . James, son, 16 . . Andrew, son, 16 . . Jack, son, 13 . . Johney, son, 7 * * * . . Willie, son, 4 . . Kittie, dau, 1 I would think it is highly likely that the Anner/Anna MESSER in the home of James and Rachel MESSER is the one who married the nearby Johney/John SMITH from the same area; however, cannot be entirely sure.

RESPONSE: I could not locate a General WILSON on the 1870 or 1880 Knox Co. I could not locate a marriage for him to Rosa Belle LEE. Rosa B. LEE is on the 1880 Knox Co. There are a number of other WILSON families around in 1880 and in 1870. He is either going by some other name at that point or he is not there. I looked for names that might be the name of a General like "Lee", George", Sherman, etc. but nothing jumped out at me. Joyce C. p. s. I also found him with no problem on the 1910 Knox Co. Message text written by INTERNET:KYKNOX-L@rootsweb.com >I am looking for a man by the name of General Wilson b. about March 13, 1869 per tombstone d. July 8, 1951 in Knox County. The 1900 Census lists General in Knox County. I am trying to find out who his parents are. His wife is Rosa Belle Lee. so if he can't be found in a census can someone look up his marriage and I can get a copy of his marriage certificate maybe it will be listed there. They would have been married about 1893. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Cassy. -- <
