1850
1850 Census, Muhlenburg Co., KY, District No. 1, Page 193(B), HH#271/271:
Lynn, Nathan 50 M farmer 200 MO
* Lynn, Elizabeth 44 VA (cannot read & write)
* Lynn, James M. 18 M farmer VA
Lynn, Albert H. 13 M VA (attended school)
Lynn, Salamands[?] 10 F VA
[Note 1: I think the "VA" births of the kids must be in error.]
[Note 2: Elizabeth was born Elizabeth Jones, and married Massey Gentry 03 APR 1829. They had son James Massey Gentry, b. 14 JUN 1832, shortly before the death of Massey Gentry on 23 AUG 1834. Elizabeth (Jones) Gentry then married Nathan Lynn 17 OCT 1835. So the person listed here as James M. Lynn was born James M. Gentry. He was also buried as James M. Gentry, so I don't think his name was ever legally James M. Lynn.]
