Sandra - I am just starting on my research, but have traced back to Touissant Geno in Kershaw Co. S.C.His son was Francis, Sr., who had a son Francis, Jr., who had a son William Geno (who was my great grandfather), who had a son Andrew Berry Geno (who was my grandfather), who had a son, R. C. Geno (who was my father.I think Francis and Francis, Jr. are buried in Tippah County, Mississippi, and my sister and I are going to the Hopewell Cemetery soon to see if we can find their graves.My great grandfather married Margarett Surratt in Tippah County around 1868, I believe.William left Mississippi and his family and went to Texas when my Margarett was pregnant with their last child, Frankie D.No one ever saw him again.I was about five years old when Margarett died and I can barely remember going to her funeral.She is buried at Jumpertown Cemetery in Prentiss County, Mississippi, along with several other Genos.Hope this helps some.
