Thank you for the information, but I'm not sure this is my John E. My John E. should have been 10 or 11 at the time of the 1880 census. He was born in 1869. :) Rhonda in SD ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marci Preuit" <katie1@presys.com> To: <PRUITT-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2000 3:42 PM Subject: Re: [PRUITT] Introduction > Pittsylvania Co. 1880 census. > no. 515-599 Icyphrenia Pruitt 40 VA. farmer (nee Ford) > Asa W. 14 VA. farm hand > Susan T. 11 Va. > John E. 9 VA. > Sarah E. 7 VA. > > (Mrs Pruitt seems to be a widow here.) > > Marci Preuit Oregon > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "rstu" <rstu@saintmail.net> > To: <PRUITT-L@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2000 12:40 PM > Subject: Re: [PRUITT] Introduction > > > > No, sorry.

In all the Pruitt's of varied spelling he is the only John E. in that County. It is a "very good chance" he is the one you are looking for. (Sometimes it seems too simple?) I wouldn't be concerned about it being off a few years from your birth record that you have on hand, until further research is done and more records are found and collected to compare for age etc. in old records. I have found the ages in census are not always correct, several census have to be compared to come to a close guess on the age in them. A true Bible record is the best proof of age. Army records are not always right, my civil war grandfather complained they wrote his age wrong. He spoke poor english so this could have been a problem when he signed up for the war in 1862. I saw the year was off from what you have on John E. but no doubt, I think it is your john that I sent you. The information I gave you was gathered from Richard A. Prewitt book on "Pruitts in Virginia". Pretty good book to trace a movement in Virginia of ones family from county to county, and when some moved to another state and when and where, also when some moved back to VA. He has in print books on most states the Pruitts of all families lived in.
