I had forgotten that i was subscribed to this list, there has been so little activity on it. Welcome, Bill. I have benefited greatly from the KYJP list for the past several months both from the data listings and from contacting people who were also researching my surnames. My major stumbling block continues to be my ggrandfather James WASHBURN of Marshall County. On the 1880 Graves County census he is listed as head of household with wife Mary E. age 24. son Walter S. age 2, and son Jasper, age<1, born in May. Jasper is my grandfather. I have been unable to determine if James is the 7th son of Gabriel (1810-1895) and Susanna Emmaline Thompson (1815-1859) or if he is the son of John W. (b. c1828-) and Margaret A. Radford (c1834 - aft 1880). He says on the 1880 census that both his parents were born in North Carolina. I am looking for any information that would eliminate or indicate one of these two James' as the one who moved to Graves County to raise his family. I believe his wife Mary E. was Mary E. POTTS, b. 10 Aug 1853 in Graves County to Elijah POTTS and Elizabeth VICUS. I have not been able to find any record of either James or Mary after the 1880 census. Hopefully someone in Marshall County has a solution to my dilemma or can head me in the right direction to find a solution. My other JP surnames are DOWDY, DUFFELL, GORE, HOBBS, JACKSON, PEERY, SIBERT and STEPHENS. I will gladly share any information I have. Merry Christmas to all!! Sandy
