Hi List! Could someone please help me by providing a lookup for marriage & census between JACOB LEMMONS LUCINDA PARKER, please. She was born about 1822 & it was believed they lived in Coffee & Cannon county TN. They had three children I know about at this time: John Wesley Lemmons born 1845 William Thomas Lemmons born 1847 Hiram "Dick " born 1866. Thanks to a wonderful list! Vicki

Vicki, On a search I find there is a Jacob Lemmons in 1830 Davidson County TN, (I search on Ancestry) but I couldn't find his name on the page the index noted. A search in 1840 found nothing, and I tried every alternate spelling I could think of. I know how bad people can be at translating L's as S's or T's, but no luck. In 1850 I found a J Lemmons in the 5th Civil District of Coffee County. He should have been listed on page 2. Unfortunately Ancestry does not include the first 6 pages of the 1850 Coffee County census in their images. Maybe you could find it in an index? Not sure if the pages are lost or if Ancestry just skipped them. Unfortunately the 1860 isn't searchable online. Not much info, but maybe someone with the actual index books can give you a bit more information.

Vicki, Well I did a bit more digging in the 1860 Census to see if I could find Jacob. I tried looking in neighboring county, Bedford. I didn't find a Jacob, but I did find a James...maybe a misunderstanding of his name? Although this James looks to be a widower in 1860. Just thought I'd send it on to you just in case. I believe the district they are in is along the border with Coffee County. (Someone correct me here if I'm wrong please) 1860 Bedford County Census, District 25 Roseville H.H. 970/970 James Lemons 35 b.NC Mary Lemons 17 b.TN John Lemons 16 b.TN James Lemons 14 b.TN Issac Lemons 10 b.TN Susan Lemons 8 b.TN Just thought it might be family even if it wasn't your Jacob.
