She had 9 childred one of which is my GGgrandfather Kindred, who is buried at Salem Seminole Cementery in Decatur GA. The problem I am having is that the family records show that this Priscilla Braswell was born in 1797 and her children are the children of Jacob Johnston, which I believe is incorrect due to the fact that if it was true, her youngest child Mary Prisilla would have been born when Pricilla was 62. <BR/>You can find the census here http://ftp.us-census.org/pub/usgenweb/census/ga/randolph/1860/indx-a-c.txt showing her and the 9 children on the Randolph county 1860 census. Kindred moved to Decatur between 1860-1900 and married Mary Katherine Faircloth. If you could would you please help me find out if Kindred was illegimate or which Braswell was his father?<BR/>Thanks <BR/>Michele Kohlermicka_58http://www.blogger.com/profile/10101965158438734246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683971952273944632.post-55356516184409998312007-10-19T16:10:00.000-07:002007-10-19T16:10:00.000-07:00I was thinking the same thing.
