Thank you so much for the information, Arlene.I had no idea that she had other children with James Stephenson.I have the 1870 Rapides Parish census record of John O'Banion with a Sarah and children in the household, but I guess it just never dawned on me that it was his sister.I've been to Miller Cemetery in Cottonwood, LA many times, and I've seen all of the unmarked and sunken graves.It's a shame we don't know who they are.If you'd like to contact me privately, my email address is listed with my postings.I am the gg-granddaughter of James Byrd Stevison.I've been trying to get beyond his father, James Stephenson for years with no success.It's really great to hear from another family member who's so closely related.Thank you again so much.You've given me a lot to go on.
Sincerely,
Carolyn
