Census (family)
1880 - US Census, Arkansas, Ashley Co., Portland Dist. p. 141. This census does not show the three youngest children from the 1870 census and probably died. Also here we see a blank when it comes to the father of Martha. Either the person giving the census didn't know or Martha didn't know who her father was or at least where he was born.Mashan, John L. w m 46 Farmer Georgia So. Caro So. Caro
