Hi Again All Let me say that Carter did a great job on these and I agree. JimBob Jeremiah "Short Jerry" Combs Hi Lynda While going through the 1870 Perry Co Census, I may have found an error in the annotation of Jeremiah Combs #157 of the Hazard Pct. According to the comments I have probably from Debi, this Jeremiah was the son of Moses Combs and not Jeremiah "Chunky Jerry". Apparently William O'Connor got confused on the two. See the comment below. P S To everyone: Don't forget to back up all that good data that you have accumulated over the last 30 days. Carter Notes: Jeremiah Combs m Mary "Polly" FELTNER (Mary FELCKNER per 1858 Perry Co KY record of birth of their daughter, Martha Combs). William O'Conner's "Danger" manuscript has confused this Jeremiah with the 1880 Perry KY Census HH#150 of Jeremiah and Mary "Polly" WILLIAMS(?) Combs, whom O'Conner has identified as s/o Jeremiah and Sallie GRIGSBY Combs, and h/o Mary "Polly" WILLIAMS, d/o Nicholas and Ann WILLIAMS Williams. See 1880 Perry Co, KY census. 1870 Perry Co Census HH#157 157-157/3 Combs Jeremiah M W 39 Ky Farmer, s/o Moses and Lydia Combs Combs d. 10 Jan 1853 157-157/3 Combs Polly F W 32 Ky m. 3 Sept 1959 Perry 157-157/3 Combs Martha F W 12 Ky 157-157/3 Combs John M W 10 Ky Notes: Jeremiah Combs m Mary "Polly" FELTNER (Mary FELCKNER per 1858 Perry Co KY record of birth of their daughter, Martha Combs).
