Your search has proven to be quite interesting.It seems that Toombs may be related to Toumbs, due to error.Our reunion is family.We have it biannually.They were all mothered by one who married an Indian named Toombs in 1920's.I don't know what happen to his brothers' children.His name was J.B., used Jay and Johnnie.The brothers were Farris and Bud (possibly a nickname for Willie).It doesn't seem at this time that we can find a connection. His sons were Willie, Acie, Jessie, Louis, Preston, Mack, Donald.
Do you have any of those named in your family history?I didn't see any...maybe you heard a story not yet verified.
