James Wesley McKinney IN and AR
The 1880 census for Mill Creek, Franklin County, Arkansas has this census enumeration:
Page 788B
James W. MC KINNEY - self, 24 yo, b. IN, Farmer Fa: IN;Mo: ---
Mary MC KINNEY - wife, 24 yo, b. IN, Keeping HouseFa: ---; Mo: -
Maggie MC KINNEY - Dau F, 4 yo b. KS, Fa: IN; Mo: IN
Calanstar J. MC KINNEY - Dau, 17 yo, b.INFa: IN; Mo: IN
William MC KINNEY - Son, 12 yo, b. IN, Laborer On Farm Fa: IN; Mo: IN
Hyram A. MC KINNEY - Son, 8 yo, b. IN Fa: IN; Mo: IN
Is this the James Wesley McKinney, son of Montraville McKinney and Matilda Newkirk? Montraville was the son of Charlotte (Fugate)(McKinney) Massey. James Wesley was raised by his maternal grandmother in Fountain County, Indiana. He reputedly lived later in Arkansas.
The information on this census record is difficult to interpret since James lists Calanstar as daughter, 17 yo; William as son, 12 yo and Hyram as son, 8 yo. Since James is only 24 yo himself, I have serious doubts that any of these older children could be his children!
One possiblity is that the age of James W. McKinney as recorded here is wrong by a lot! Another possibility is that the three older children were James' siblings and not his children. If that is the case, this would not be James Wesley McKinneyson of Montraville.
For more information about this family, see the post to this Forum by Walter Dollison on 3 Sept 2000 - message # 3077.
Can anyone help me out here??Thank you.
