Hello, This is a first time for me on this list. I am trying to help a cousin son with his grandmothers family line. His grandmother died a couple years back and they know nothing at all about that side of the family Pauline married at age 13 and left and never got to see her family again. There is a Sophia Scott that married James Lynn below dose she belong in anyones line on this site or dose anyone have any information on her and her family. I would welcome any help at all. Thank you, Barbara The following appear to be William T. Lynn with his parents and siblings in 1870 and 1880, with his parents' birthplaces agreeing with the 1910 census. In 1880, for each of the children, the parents' birthplaces are listed in reverse order even though they're listed correctly for the parents themselves. 1880 Census of Jasper, Crawford Co., Arkansas - p. 507A - 1 June J.

His age is listed incorrectly in this census year - see 1880, 1860, and 1850. Nancy may have been the second wife. I believe the following 1860 census is the same family, with William's father, James, apparently being a widower. The older woman may have been James's mother, perhaps with a second married name, or she may have been an aunt. ... 1860 Census of Van Buren, Cedar Creek Tshp., Crawford Co., Arkansas, p. 147 / 753 - 24 July James I.

Ark. - male In 1850, there is a 50-year-old Delpha Price in Jasper, Crawford Co., where James and family lived in 1880. In 1850, however, her birthplace is listed as Alabama rather than North Carolina, and her age places her birth 5 years earlier than the 1860 census. Following are deaths of Lynns in Crawford County. Unfortunately, the indexes don't list ages or dates of birth. ... Sally Lynn on 08/13/1938 (Arkansas Death Record Index 1934-1940, p. 2160) James Fra.
