How kind you are! I am just so stuck on research for George Jefferson in Lubbock County in 1880. On the census the census taker writes thatGeorge's birthplace was Van Buren County, Michigan, and for the other
24 fellows that I traced, the census taker was right on the money, so I have no reason to believe he was wrong on this one--unless ol' George told him wrong, of course. George's age is given as 29, but of course you know how that could be off by several years. He was a buffalo skinner, and they were not ones who put down roots for very long until they were too old to hunt anymore. I found a listing on one of the websites that said a George Jefferson born about that time was the son of Charles Jefferson and Mary Jane Storey, but there was nothing else.It may be a lead or a wild goose chase. Any effort on my behalf is GREATLY appreciated.
BEst wishes from Lubbock
