Notes

Thomas, who was also called Thomas J., (probably Thomas Jefferson, and Richard H. L. probably stood for Richard Henry Lee - although this is speculation on my part), was our ancestor. Until recently we had not been able to find Thomas' wife's name, only that it was Mary and we had been told by Billy Baskerville (son of Charles, bro of Benjamin and Mary Eliz.) of Sumner, that she was called "Dinkie" and that she was from William's Hollow. We now know that her name was Mary "Dink" or "Dinkie" Williams. We knew from census records that her name was Mary, but we finally saw the name Mary "Dink" Williams on the death certificate for Richard, the oldest son of Thomas and Mary. This record was given to me a few years ago by a desc. of Richard.
Thomas J. Baskerville b. 1839 and Mary Williams b. 1844 (figured from census records) had 11 children - Richard b. 1861, Mary Eliz. b. 1863 (she was born in Ky. for some reason, possibly because of the Civil War, but we have no idea why or where she was born in Ky.), John b. 1865, Ben. Franklin b. 1867, Sallie b. 1870, Josephine b. 1872, Chris Columbus b. 1875, Geo. Augustus b. 1878, Cleve O. b. 1884, Charles b. 1881, and Emma b. 1886. My sister got a lot of the Baskerville data that we know about from Cammie Braham, wife of Wade Baskerville, son of Benjamin. I have recently spoken with Wade, and he says Cammie is deceased. [Kay]
