I located the family of John M. and Florence Polk in the 1910 federal census, to see where she was born (T624, Roll 1523, p.91).They were living in Covington, Tipton Co., TN, and the family looked like this:
POLK
John M.38b. KYparents both b. in KY/worked at a bank
Florence31b. TNparents both b. TN/she and John married for 10 years
dau. Hallie B.6b. TN
dau. E--- A.3b. TN
Knowing that Florence was born in TN, I was able to find her family in 1880, in Dist. 10, Lauderdale Co., TN (T9, Roll 1266, p.127).I think it's quite certain that this is the correct Florence because of the name Halliburton.Here is the record of her family and the next one on the page:
Henry BOYD Self 29 TN
Farmer Fa: VA Mo: VA
Mary BOYD Wife 33 TN
Keeping House Fa: NC Mo: TN
Mary BOYD Dau 4 TN
Florence BOYD Dau 2 TN
David BOYD Son 1M TN
Alex HALLIBURTON SSon 11 TN
Sarah HALLIBURTON Self 38 TN
Farmer Fa: NC Mo: TN
Sarah HALLIBURTON Dau 17 TN
Mattie HALLIBURTON Dau 14 TN
Richd. HALLIBURTON Son 12 TN
Wm. HALLIBURTON Son 7 TN
I would guess that mother Mary Boyd and Sarah Halliburton were sisters because of the fact that both their fathers were born in NC and their mothers in TN.
I hope this helps.
