This is an email I received from David Love. Any help to his question would be appreciated.


Hello, just admiring your website and searching for more information about Nancy Ellen Love (wife of James Edward Mullis). Her father and mother were Charles Cannon Love, Jr. (my ggg-grandfather) and Frances "Franky" Mullis. I'm trying to determine why Charles Cannon Love, Jr. did not marry Franky Mullis since neither of them had children when Nancy Ellen Love was born (c.1853)? Charles went on to marry Rosanna Little in 1853 and Franky married Winslow Hinson in 1857. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I should mention that there is some dispute about Nancy's year of birth. Your web site has 1853, but other sources say 1857. While the 1910 census supports 1853, there's other evidence to support 1857. I would appreciate any help you could provide resolving this issue. Thanks!

I have placed the census images of James Mullis and Nancy Love for 1880, 1900, 1910, and 1930 in the Downloads section:
Click on Downloads above -> Federl Census Images -> Mullis Household -> North Carolina -> Union County


1880 Census - Age 24
1900 Census - born 1853
1910 Census - Age 58
1930 Census - Age 76

The majority of Census info places here born about 1853. I would love to have the other evidence that shows she was born in 1857...please share with us.

Thanks,

Okay I think the mystery is solved since I found her headstone in the New Hope Baptist Church Cemetery.

Born 1854 - Died 1936
