Hi Charlie,
This is a follow up to the e-mail I sent to you yesterday.
My GGGrandfather was James Franklin Champion (b 1815 d 12/17/1881). I
believe he was married to Maria(h) Polly Dorworth (b 1812 d 3/15/1894).
The 1850 Census has them living in Union Township, Jefferson County. PA.
They had four children:
John Stephen** b 1839
Thomas James b 1841
Nancy Jane b 1847
Mary b 1846
** My G Grandfather
I have not been able to find James Franklin Champions parents. I have a
feeling my Champions may have migrated from Virginia, or other points
south, but I have not been able to find a connection.
Have you run across this branch of the Champion Family? I sure hope so. I
sure could use the help.
