Documentation:
* 1820 Census, Emanuel Co, GA, page 80, 20001-01
* 1830 Census, Emanuel Co, GA, page 170, 111101-11001
* Information based on the 1850 Emanuel Co, GA census. There was three more children on this record, but the way they were listed, I got the feeling they were someone else's kids. They are as follows: Arrillos, age 19 Leah, age 15 Florinda, 9.
* Mentioned in a probate record of Travis Thigpen, 3 Feb 1849, concerning a slave named Nero. He was mentioned as son.
* Will Book B, Emanuel Co GA, pgs 89-93, dtd 7 Oct 1876, recorded 3 Sep 1877; mentions wife, Barbara; sons, Richard, Travis, Daniel, William, and Lucian; mentions girl children, Elizabeth McLemore, Eliza McLendon, Lola Ann Odom, & Sarah Ann Dawes (spelling may be off as it was hard to read).
