Notes
- Jefferson County, Tennessee, censuses of 1830 and 1840 do not give names of any but the head of household for James Strange.
In 1850, we find the wife of James Strange, age 63, is Sarah Strange, age 60. A Sarah Alen, age 28, who appears to be their daughter, is in the same house with five children, and is enumerated as a second family in the same household. Three of the children have Allen as a surname, so it appears these are her children.
Two of the children have the surname of Mills, so it is not clear how they are related. The two Mills boys are listed after the three Allen children, even though one is older. This census did not report the relationship of other members of the household to the head of the household.
One of the Mills boys, Joseph, is reported as the same age as age 4, the same age as Sarah's son James. James Mills is 12, but the oldest Allen child is Sarah, age 8, who would have been born when mother Sarah was 20 years old.
