Charles Mason (M) is in Hancock Co, TN in 1860 he is 22 years old and born in VA living with Sterling Rhea & family(W) he is my Grt Grand father. Martha and Wm Phillips are also in Hancock Co, in 1860. Wm Phillips (M) is also in the 1850 census living alone, Polly Phillips is living next door, she is white. He and his wife Martha had several children,one sister, Sarah married Wm (Collins) Ogans, I have most of their line. I have info coming forward for Charles Mason and one son John Henry, he and wife Eliza had four other boys I can not locate after the 1880 census. I am also trying to get a line on Martha & Bill Phillips other children. I did find Martha married to Robert Clarkston in 1880 census. I will gladly exchange info. you may e-mail me direct nichazel@kc.rr.com
