Washington Co., FL, 1880-1900
In the 1880 census, the only Taunton family in Washington Co. was:
Taunton, Newsom61Georgia
Nancy (W)56Georgia
Simeon (S)27Alabama
George (S)22Alabama
In 1900, the only Taunton/Tanton family in the county was:
Tanton, Rebecca33May 1867Georgia
John (S)16Aug 1883Florida
Henry (S)14Apr 1886Florida
Phoebe (D)12Jun 1888Florida
Susy (D)9Dec 1890Florida
George (S)5May 1895Florida
Simeon (S)1Apr 1899Florida
I know for a fact that the Newsom and Nancy Taunton listed in 1880 died before 1900. The George Taunton listed in 1880 married Sadie Snell and moved to Walton Co. (1900 and 1910) then Liberty Co. (1920), FL.
That leaves Simeon Taunton unaccounted for from the 1880 census. Rebecca Taunton of the 1900 census was widowed, and I'm trying to find evidence that she was the widow of Simeon, as I've been able to find no trace of him after his 1880 census entry.
Does anyone recognize the family of Rebecca Taunton and know who her Taunton husband was, and what her maiden name was? I'd love to hear from anyone who recognizes any of these Taunton/Tanton individuals.
