I am new to the list and my search is for the wife of John Worthen (any spelling). If he belongs to the family I think he does he would have been in Wilson County around 1812 - 1830s. I would appreciate any help locating who he married. I found John first in Wayne Co., TN 1830 Census & is between 40-50 years of age born in VA with female between 20-30; 3 sons between 0-15; four daughters 5-20 years of age. The 1850 Wayne Co., TN census shows him 32 or 52 , wife Nancy P. is 35 plus 8 children and one daughter in law. The two oldest girls and my ggrandfather had married by then. Everyone was listed as born in TN Nancy is probably a second or third wife and I base that on the age of the older children's. Would appreciate a look-up in a Wilson Co. marriage book for John Worthen/Worsham/Worthing/Wortham/ Warthen/ Worthum/ etc. for a marriage between 1790-1829. I really appreciate your help. Anyone else on this line working Worthen's? Barbara
