Hi Carlisle and everyone else I don't think that I am getting through, #1 Jesse was born <1774> has no wife listed and has four boys listed as follows: Richard T., Zephaniah, #2 Jesse born 1815 and John. #2 Jesse married Elizabeth ???. #3 Jess born <1845> (Richards) #4 Jesse B. born 1835. (Zephaniahs) As for the additional children listed with Zephaniah, Amanda and Robert, they appeared with them in 1860 Wood Co. Census. I sure hope that someone can help me clear this up.
