I love this idea. I too have a brick wall. Tilman Patterson b. abt. 1810 in NC. Married 8 Feb 1856 in Pulaski Co. KY. to Mary Polly McKinney He is listed in the census as having these children in the household. Louisa, John Fletcher, Mary C., Lucinda Jane, Elizabeth The first two children were born before he married Mary Polly. Where did they come from? Was one of them possibly married before? Also who were Tilman's parents? Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks, Sharon
