I am searching for additional info about
James Clayton Caylor 1860 - 1933 and wife Nanny Elizabeth Lee 1862 - 1924.
In the 1880 James says that he was born in Ky and it lists his parents are *James Caler
and Elizabeth*:

I have an elderly cousin who insists that her grandfather William G. Caylor (d. about 1952
in Tenn) was a son of James Clayton Caylor. She says that William had 2 brother: Milton
and Lucian.
I can't find William G. or Milton or Lucian in any census although they seem to have
come from the Warren Co. area of Kentucky and moved to Tenn.
However, I do find these documented children for James Clayton Caylor and Nanny Elizabeth
Lee:
Allie L. b. 1881 m. R.K. Kimbro
Nellie b. 1883 m. Ed Gott
Daniel Boone b. 1886 m. C.A. Green
John Milton b. 1888
Otis b. 1892 m. Winnie Graham
Eddy b. 1894
Ralph b. 1901 m. Jessie Jones.
Here is the James Clayton Caylor family in other census entries:

Cayler, father and by James G. Lee, father. Groom age 20. Bride age 17. Married 7 Mar
1880 at J.G. Lee's by A. H. Berry. Wit. James Lee and John Cayler.
I can't find James Clayton Caylor with his parents in the 1870 or 1860. Does anyone
have that census transcription with this family?
Thank you for any info you can add
