TAUNTON Family, 1880-1900
Posted by: Michelle Taunton (ID *****7370) Date: August 07, 2005 at 18:45:27
  of 350

In the 1880 census, the only Taunton family in Washington Co. was:

Taunton, Newsom              61       Georgia       
       Nancy (W)       56       Georgia       
       Simeon (S)       27       Alabama       
       George (S)       22       Alabama       

In 1900, the only Taunton/Tanton family in the county was:

Tanton, Rebecca              33       May 1867       Georgia
       John (S)       16       Aug 1883       Florida
       Henry (S)       14       Apr 1886       Florida
       Phoebe (D)       12       Jun 1888       Florida
       Susy (D)        9       Dec 1890       Florida
       George (S)        5       May 1895       Florida
       Simeon (S)        1       Apr 1899       Florida

I know for a fact that the Newsom and Nancy Taunton listed in 1880 died before 1900. The George Taunton listed in 1880 married Sadie Snell and moved to Walton Co. (1900 and 1910) then Liberty Co. (1920), FL.

That leaves Simeon Taunton unaccounted for from the 1880 census. Rebecca Taunton of the 1900 census was widowed, and I'm trying to find evidence that she was the widow of Simeon, as I've been able to find no trace of him after his 1880 census entry.

Does anyone recognize the family of Rebecca Taunton and know who her Taunton husband was, and what her maiden name was? I'd love to hear from anyone who recognizes any of these Taunton/Tanton individuals.
