Looking for the parents of William Swain, (b. 1851, KY) possibly in Franklin, TN or near county. Hoping that the 1860 index lists more than heads of households since I don't have his parents' names. He was in the household of Josiah Swain in 1870 in Franklin, but am guessing Josiah was his uncle, since William married Alice Swain, Josiah's daughter and moved to Texas. Thanks for any information you have to offer. Shirley in MN
