ok, I'm doing the census line by line. I found Middleton THORNHILL and his family in the 1870 Franklin County census. I also found his mother there. In 1880 I found no Thornhill's, not one. Is there anything in particular that happened in Franklin County betwwen 1870 & 1880? Middleton's sisters married Emfinger's and they are still there. That's a lot of missing people, if you have any thoughts, please e-mail me. thanks, Debbie
