Hi Cyndy, The only Banks that I could find in the census that had children Elizabeth & George, [there are no Bessie, Betsy, Lizzie Banks that I could find]. 1850 Breathitt County Kentucky Census District #2 59-59, BANKS, Wm., W., 39, M, Farmer, 150, VA Fiba, 30, F, KY Charley, 15, M, Farmer, KY Charlotte, 12, F Sally, 10, F Elizabeth, 8, F <======= Danl., 7, M William, 5, M Polly, 4, F James, 3, M George, 1, M <======= 1860 Breathitt County Kentucky Census 381/381 BANKS W.

Elizabeth Taulbee, sister of "Preacher Lee". I can't find William & Phoebe Banks in the 1870 census to see if that have a grandson named James with them. Is anyone familiar with this William Banks family?

Louise, I believe it is entirely possible that this is Jerry s/o James and Rebecca Caroline Campbell Banks. My g-grandfather was Andrew Jackson Banks s/o James and Rebecca Caroline Campbell Banks and would have been a brother to Jerry. Andrew also changed his name to Taulbee and 1st married Peggy/Maggie Taulbee d/o John CB Taulbee & Margaret Allen. I was told by older relatives on a trip I made to KY several years back that the name change was because James Banks was the illegitamate son on William Lee Taulbee and Elizabeth Banks. I have also had trouble finding Elizabeth Banks (aka Bessie Banks) but believe she may be the sister of George Banks. Is there anything in the census that shows a George and Elizabeth Banks as the children of someone? I believe it would have been in the mid or maybe late 1800s.

Hi, I'm trying to help a list member figure out what is wrong with his subscription. No need for anyone else to reply. Sorry to do it this way but it's the only way to do it. Have a nice day, Norma from - Middletown Ohio Family Page - www.angelfire.com/oh/myfamilygenes KYCORNETT Yahoo Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/KYCORNETT/

No blindness in my Taulbee line that I know of either. Hope all is well with yours. Deb

Tom-- I agree with you! I hope your son's eyes are all right. Let us know. There is no blindness in my Taulbee line that I know of--thank goodness! Bess

As a Taulbee male my son and I suggest we talk about something more positive than Taulbee men being subject to a genetic matter leading to blindness!!!!! It is interesting though fortunately back through our line I know of no blindness but after sending my son these messages he said he had an appointment with his ophthalmologist for his eyes had gotten bad in recent months!!!

Could the blinding disease be retinitis pigmentosa? There is a case in one of the men of our branch of the family. It is an inherited condition which sometimes skips generations.

My Ky families, the Fugates and Stampers have Retinosis Pigmentosa and many, many of them are blind. I am pretty sure it came from the Stamper side, i haven't looked at my files for quite awhile. Judi

no, have heard of several taulbee who have it

My mother was/is a Taulbee and none of her family has ever become blind. This is the first I have heard of this. Do you think it could have come into one Taulbee line though marriage? Bess

You are on the right track. Jerry b. 2/12/1901 to James b. July 1863 to Elizabeth Banks. (Family knowledge said he was the illagimate son of William Lee Taulbee. I have not been able to confirm this on paper). and Rebecca Banks b. August 1870. Jerry was my grandfather. His first marriage was to Zella (I thought her maiden name was litterell). Nannie b. 1-25-1925 was my Aunt and I know her. She is in a nursing Home in Dayton, Ohio. After commiting Zella to a mental institution. She had what was probably known now as post partum depression after Junie was born. Jerry's second marriage was to Ella Taulbee (I believe that was her maiden name). She was my Grandma. b. 1/26/1909. She already had one son named Dewey Johnson. I am assuming this was her second Marriage. Dewey was born 9/12/????. Jerry and Ella had 2 sons. James b. 10/25/1935 d. 6/17/1995 in Magnolia Texas, buried in Dayton, Ohio, and Courtney b. 9/13/1937. Courtney is my dad. There were other wives after Ella and I have info on all that. Where I am stuck at is earlier. I have no info on Rebecca Caroline Campbell except she was supposedly born in Wolfe/Breathitt County. I have been unsuccesful at finding Elizabeth Banks.
