According to the book "The Billingsleys in America," William B. BINYON was born in IL and not TN as the census show. His son Paschal and daughter Harriet Binyon furnished the information on the family. William was born 1818 in unknown Co. IL. He moved to TN when 14. He resided in Henry Co., TN to 1856 then moved to Anderson Co., TX. I have found no other proof of his being in Henry County except this book. I can't understand why he is not on the 1850 Henry County census. By that time he had James Richard, born 1845, Paschal Brazelton b. 1847 Paris, TN, and William Jasper b. 1849. The book said they resided there until 1856. Miriam was b. 1852, Elizabeth was born 1854. The last two children were born in Texas. Bernetta Viola b. 10/28/1859 and Benton Lee born 1862 Anderson County Texas. This just makes no sense that I can find no census for them in 1850, no birth records for the children born there, or any record of any kind. I do have proof of the marriage of William B. Binyon to Lydia J. Turner in Gibson Co. TN. in 1843. And he witnessed something in 1844 in Gibson Co, TX for Lydia's father. Can someone give me some ideas? Or should I take the book, which 2 of the children furnished information for, as my proof? Help Angela
