It seems that there just has to be a connection between our 2 HIGHLAND families.
My group has the names Homer, Marcus, Dora, & Julia.
Yours has Homer, Marcus, Dora, Julie.
Mine has Homer b. ca 1869; Marcus b. ca 1873.
How about yours?
My Julia: I don't know her maiden name.She was b. ca 1848, wife of James B. HIGHLAND, who died between 1870 and 1891.As of Nov 1891, Julia, Homer & Marcus were living in Madison Co, Ky. By deed dated 17 Nov 1891 (Deed Book 93, pg 190), the heirs of James Hilen signed a deed to Lucretia Hilen:W.T. Hilen & Dora Hilen, his wife of Mason Co, KY; Martha Arn & Frederick Arn, her husband of Mason Co, Ky; Sarah E. Pollitt & Thomas Pollitt, her husband of Fleming Co, Ky; Ann T. (M. Annie) Roff & James Roff, her husband of Fayette Co, Ky; Tillie Rees & Thomas Rees, her husband of Fayette Co, Ky; Julia Hilen, Homer Hilen, & Marcus Hilen of Madison Co, Ky; all the heirs of James Hilen deceased to Lucretia Hilen, for love and affection and one dollar, 6 acres of land located on the Dover and Augusta Turnpike in Mason Co, Ky (near a graveyard).(On 29 May 1999, MJB checked 1880 & 1900 Ky soundex for all of the names stated in this deed; MJB found nothing that seemed to match up for Rees or Julia Hilen.)
All known children of James Highland/Hilen, Sr. are accounted for in this deed except son James, who must have died before his father.Son James' wife, Julia A, and children Homer & Marcus signed the deed.
My Dora: sister-in-law to James B. HIGHLAND, and aunt (by marriage to William T. HIGHLAND - brother to my James B. HIGHLAND) to my Homer & Marcus.
I suspect that, assuming that dates of birth are same/similar to mine, your Marcus & Homer may be the same as mine, and that parentage has become difficult to establish due to death of James B. HIGHLAND when the boys were still young.
