Hi Carla, Yes I have previously seen all the info you stated about James W & Isabella Tart are supposed to be Jessie Lees' parents. I was looking in that direction for the past couple of years, never finding our family. THAT IS INCORRECT! THAT IS THE WRONG JESSIE! I have finally located OUR Jessies children 1st in the 1900 Johnston County Census (this Jesse was dead by then), but listed the children with the correct ages and names. I then back tracked to this same family in the US1880 Sampson and finally found them. When I posted my results to the SAMPSON board I was then lucky enough to have several "newfound cousins" from Jessie's wifes family- the WESTBROOKS, and everything has now fallen into place. NC1880 SAMPSON County - Westbrook Township Page 164a JESSE LEE W M 31 - (*HH) Farmer SARAH A W F 28 Wife Keeping House YOUNG W. W M 7 Son *(Ira Whitfield?) SARAH B. W F 4 Daughter MARY E. W F 3 Daughter ELIZA W. W F 2 Daughter JAMES C. W M 2/12 mos. Son (*James "Claude") 1900 Johnston County US CENSUS - ED #47; page marked as Sheet 4 B LEE Family Sallie A, b. Nov. 1851 HH -widow James C.,(Claude); b. May 1880 Jesse, b. 1883 Mammie, b.1884 Jamey A., Fanny John. F. I spent years on this! The first real substantial proof was when I located the WW1 Reg Card for this Jessies son James C(Claude), b. May 1880-and it verified his fathers name was JESSE LEE. Then there was still the quandry over proving WHICH ONE! The problem was all these LEE lines had JESSIE's, YOUNG, and other names of our line. (It does appear they were all connected somehow! Sarah / Sallie A WESTBROOK is the mother of my Ggrandmother Mammie and all of her 11 of 14 children that lived. When I get everything cited correctly I will send this info.
