Linda,
Saw your message. I'm looking for a ancestor of mine. Sometimes it pays to look into other states and counties. I'm looking for my great grandfather's father from Virginia. I found my great grandfather listed in the 1870 Virginia Census, but not with his family like others around that same time frame.
I happen to search a little further and found only one Mike Anthony listed in the Alabama census 1810 - 1900. Strange, this could be my great great grandfather, who may have been sold off around 1830's or 40's and sent to Virginia .
My great grandfather was born a black slave in 1848 in the state of Virginia. I have no idea where his father came from except that I found only one Mike Anthony that could fit the time frame. Mike's wife was Frances and they may not have been married at that time.
If you have any thing on a Mike Anthony, or know anything I would be interested knowing.
Thanks
Bren
