>On 22 Feb 2000, Jim Young sent an email discussing the Lumpter and Lumter, >Simpter and Simter spellings of the names Sumpter and Sumter. In checking my >census file, I find that many of these men are truly Sumpter/Sumters. > >1830 Lumpter, Isom, Owen Co, IN, is really Sumpter, Isom. I know that Isom Sumpter was in Owen Co Clay township IN in the 1930 Federal Census. He is listed with 1 male 30-40 2 males 5-10, 3 males 0-5, 1 female 30-40, 2 females 0-5. (this seems improbable; too many infants for one woman to birth) I also know that his wife was Susanna Loving, who may have been married before. Suzanne
