Looking at 1850 LCT census- James was age 56 and Edith was age 58- Revised date of birth for James Tucker is 1787 in NC. Revised date of birth for Edith Chapman White is 1792 NC- died after 1870 LCT census when she is listed at age 81. James Tucker's will was signed Aug 19, 1856 and proven Nov 9, 1865 LCT. Can anyone tell me who James Tucker's parents were? Ginny Keefer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Virginia L.
