My connection is through JESSE LAWRENCE LATHAM B. 2-27-1825 in ALABAMA. by his first marriage to MARY B. "POLLY" SMITHERMAN. I understand there were 14 or 15 children with Polly and then 5 children with Mary Elizabeth Randolph whom he married 7-10-1853 in Choctaw MS. Any help would be very much appreciated...thanks..
