Samuel died in the institution; unfortunately they could only report what they knew for his death certificate. My Samuel disappeared from family record and Wilkes Co. alittle after 1900. I've traced him to about 1906. He's listed in the census of 1910 with his family but my grandfather Charley never met him and he would've been 10 at the time. That's what makes me think this is him. No one spoke of him after he left and there was no indication of his whereabouts to his children. I have his family history but that hasn't gotten me anywhere with him. To some family, he never existed. He just isn't in the family history, but his wife and children are, which makes no sense. He's my challenge. I just want to know what happened to him. He didn't just disappear into thin air and anyone with any info on verifying this is the right guy would be great. Do you know of any other options to prove this Samuel is my Samuel without somehow connecting Mr. Joines? Thanks, Jimmie
