Angela and John: I have a Charlotte Summers, daughter of William R. Summers and Elizabeth b. about 1849. They appear in the 1860 census in Campbell Co.: 1860 Campbell County TN Note: William Riley Summers may be a brother to Johnson Summers as they both are in the Anderson Co. Census in the districts. 399-392 RIDENOUR, David 33 M Farmer 500 700 TN 13 RIDENOUR, Mary 25 F TN 13 RIDENOUR, Martin 5 M TN RIDENOUR, Carroll 5 M TN RIDENOUR, Elisabeth 3 F TN RIDENOUR, Neoma 2 F TN RIDENOUR, Francis 2/12 F TN SUMMERS, Wm R 50 M Inmate 15 NC SUMMERS, Elisabeth 57 F Inmate TN SUMMERS, John 19 M Farm Laborer TN 12 SUMMERS, George 18 M Farm Laborer TN 12 SUMMERS, John 14 M Inmate TN 12 SUMMERS, Charlotte 11 F Inmate TN 12 David Ridenour was a son-in-law to William and Elizabeth. The Summers family was in Anderson in 1850 though. I haven't looked hard at this branch as I was trying to track down Lorenzo Dow Summers (married Amanda Kate Malicoate Boshears--known as Capt Kate). I found Lorenzo in the household of Johnson Summers in Anderson Co. in 1850 . Hope this helps the confusion. Bonnie
Hi Bonnie, If you compare the 1870 census with the 1860 you will see that Riley Summers aged 10 years from one census report to the next But wife ELIZABETH who was 57 in 1860 only aged one year she just turned 58 in time for the census (Now you don't think she was fibbing do you?). 1870 Campbell County Census Report SCHEDULE 1. -- Inhabitants in the 1st Civil District, in the County of Campbell, State of Tennessee, enumberated by me on the 2nd day of August, 1870.
