I did find recently two family's living near them in Iowa in 1860. Thomas Greenlee Paxton lived in Chequest township and John and Nancey lived in Washingtion township, VanBuren County, Iowa. Found alot of information on Thomas's family, but they are from VA. Census records tell me John's Parents are from PA. Found another family, James & Polly Paxton in Henry County, Iowa. This is also close, James and Polly's family came from PA, but I can find little or no information on them. I also just discoved John and Nancey's Home burned to the ground in September 1859 in Washingtion township, Van Buren County, Iowa which could be the reason why I have found it so difficult to find anything on their parents. If anyone sees a connection with this information - please contact me. I think they are living too close to each other, not to be connected in some way.
