Hi Sherry,

I couldn't find him in 1860. So I went back to 1850. Then I went back to 1860 to find anyone that was in the household with him in 1850. I think he is Jeffries. Probably his nickname??

Hi , My name is Jean Renfro Copeland, I've seen your family on the Renfro's on Ancestry.com, I'm a direct descendent of James Renfro b circa 1727 and Lydia (Harris?) we aren't sure of her last name. Which Renfro do you descend from? Also what was your maiden name if you are married. I don't have my tree poste d anywhere but will be happy to share information with
you. Jean AJCOP
