I have a lot current family information on Mitchel's family if you are interested sent to me by various cousins. This could be an interesting family connection I will try to explain it: Mitchel married Elizabeth (Betty) JACKSON daughter of Unknown JACKSON and Mary L CLIFTON Note as you can see I did not have Mary's husbands name, now if it is Simon Jackson Sr, Elizabeth and Mitchel are cousins. Mary L Clifton was the daughter of Noah Clifton & Elizabeth Tolbert Noah is the son of Charles (found living with the Jackson's in 1860). Sarah (married to Simon Sr on the 1860 census) may be the daughter of Charles Clifton if this is correct their son Simon Jr. Married a 1st cousin Mary L Clifton. Hope I did not confuse you I got lost on this one myself. Mitchell and Elizabeth had the following children: The Children are not in any order I do not have all the birth dates yet. 2 F i. Joan 3 M ii. Clarence 4 F iii. Gayle 5 M iv. Daniel 6 M v. Porter 7 M vi. Raymond L. was born in 1919 in Owen County, Kentucky. Raymond died in September 1973 in Owen County, Kentucky. 8 F vii. Florence 9 F viii. Bessie 10 F ix. Clara 11 F x. Beulah 12 F xi. Mae 13 F xii. Blanche 14 F xiii. Cozetta + 15 M xiv. John Willias was born on an unknown date in Kentucky. He died before 1849 in Owen County, Kentucky. Now if I can prove all this I have more information for my family file and answers a lot of question Thanks Barbara
