I am looking for ancestors of the James Families. I have a Henry I. James born abt 1790
in Indiana. May have been born in Ohio, Married Cynthia Shultz in Vandenburg in 1832
Children born there are Cynthia Ann James 1832, Lewis Frank James b. 1836 and probably
Margaret James b. 1840. This family then moved to Jefferson Iowa. I am then looking for a
brother who might be named William or Lewis ? He is listed as being born in Ohio in the
Vemillion County 1880 census but he is already dead and so I have no given name and am
just guessing at the name since his sons are named Lewis, William, and Edward. The common
names seem to be Rosa, Emma, Lewis, connecting to Henry I.James' family. My James
family is found in Vemillion County by 1870's. Any help would be appreciated. Kaye
