In the 1860 U.S. Census of Overton
County, Tennessee I found, living in one home, my 2 year old Great-Great
Grandmother. Living in the same house was her 25 year old mother, my
Great-Great-Great Grandmother. Also enumerated living in the same house was my Great- Great-Great-Great Grandmother. Now if that is not enough a 4th
generation also lived in the same home and was the head of the house on the
1860 census. That person was my 90 year old Great-Great-Great-Great-Great
Grandfather who was born in 1768.
If you would care to see it goto: 1860 United States
Federal Census, Tennessee, Overton,
District 3, family number 1174, pages number 104 & 105.. I should note that
the name Penticost has been incorrectly interpreted as Renticost. Looking at
the original document one can see why that occurred.
