Mr. Sinclair, I hope you are still at your old e-mail address and get this.I am descended from a Rebecca Mays born about 1812 in TN, died before 1870 in TX.She married John Matthew Parmer.They came to Texas from Arkansas.John M. Parmer's father was in the 1830 Crawford Co. AR census. The Parmers were in Texas by 1836. The household next to John & Rebecca in the 1850 census (Shelby Co., TX) is Matthew Mays, age 51, born in TN.Matthew is not old enough to be Rebecca's father, but I am guessing they are somehow related.There are several Mays in the 1830 Crawford Co., AR census, including a Matthew , Sr. & Jr.Do you have anything on Rebecca?Thanks, Jill Lewis
