• Notes

  He was a confederate soldier. Listed in the 1880 Marshall Co., TN Census Marshall County ED #106 (The old 4th civil district) Ancestry page numbers Pg. 3 has Bascomb, Pg. 5 has Dora, Pg. 6 has Sorrels and Darnells Pg. 7 is very hard to read at the top, but it looks like William Lee Davis, Sarah, a daughter's name I can't read, William (son), and Oscar T. But I'm really confused about Oscar T. The age looks like it is in the teens...he should be nearly 30 (Willie is listed as 28). On this he is listed as single...(Ossie is listed as married on hers - at the time she was living with her parents). [1880 Census, Marshall County, TN, 4th.
