Good work, Georgia! Would that the census taker had done a good job on the dates for Fanny (Fannie). The dates of when she was supposed to have been born and the dates she married do not add up. Very confusing (or maybe I am just getting to old to think straight ??? big grin) In one place it says she married at age 16 and had 7 children by the time she was 23. But if she was born in 1886 and married Joe Sparkman in 1868 that makes her age 18 when she married. Jo Ann (the confused one) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Georgia L.
