I've found a James Donnell in Denton County, TX in 1880 Census and can not place him? He was b. 1830 in TX with parents both born in Kentucky. His wife is Nancy, b. 1842 in TX with parents born in Kentucky. They have a daughter, Artelie (f), b. 1863, TN with parents b. Texas; A "Son", "Harius" b. 1864, MO, with Father b. NC and Mother in TN; "Son", Charles, b. 1870, MO, parents b. Tennessee; "Daug", Ida A, b. 1873, MO, parents, b. TN; "son", Thomas, 1876, TX, Father b. TN and Mother b. MO; and "daug", Lizza, b. 1879, TX, Father b. TN and Mother b. MO. I do not think that ALL of these children are NATURAL children of Thomas and Nancy, because of where the "parents" were born..most are different. What is the relationship? Nieces and Nephews that were adopted? I can not find ANY of them in any other Census. Can anyone help me figure out who they are? Email me at
