Not that I'm kin to the Hunsuckers (as far as I know) but I am kin to the Bolch and Mauser families as we have discussed before. I've included a portion of your note on Sarah and Henry Bolch "In the 1830 census of daughter Sarah and Henry Bolch, there is what appears to be daughter Mary living with them, and she would have been only 16 yrs old. I still haven't determined where Davault, Elizabeth, and Lawson were in 1830. Davault would have been legal age of 23, but we have 4 minors who should probably be found in the orphan court records, Mary age 16, Lawson age 12, Elizabeth age 11, and Elcany age 4. Perhaps the children were with the Smith grandparents. Further follow up needs to be done for land records and orphan court records" I have a copy of a self published book written by Judge Douglas Berryhill whose wife is a member of the Balch family which before was the Bolch family. His data is taken the Tennessee Census for 1860, 70, 80, 100, 1910. In this data there isn't a listing for Mary. He does list Harvey Girsline Bolch born abt 1842 and Hartwell Balch born abt 1845 as children of Sarah and Henry. I'll be happy to dig In the 1830 census of daughter Sarah and Henry Bolch, there is what appears to be daughter Mary living with them, and she would have been only 16 yrs old. I still haven't determined where Davault, Elizabeth, and Lawson were in 1830. Davault would have been legal age of 23, but we have 4 minors who should probably be found in the orphan court records, Mary age 16, Lawson age 12, Elizabeth age 11, and Elcany age 4.
