I am searching for information regarding Peter "Pete" Thornton b. 1892 d. 1983.

1900 census Tishomingo Co., MS District #2
Welch, Stephen h Feb 1852 48 m 5 MS NC AL
Mary E. w Mar 1860 40 m 5 9 5 MS TN AL
Jesse V. sd Nov 1884 15 s AL Ita MS
Thornton, Buford W. ss Sep 1889 10 s TN TN MS
Peter P. ss Sep 1892 7 s TN TN MS
Welch, Sally H. d Jul 1896 3 s MS MS MS
Welch, Dollie A. d Oct 1898 1 s MS MS MS

According to the 1900 census Peter was born in TN, subsequent census indexes list his place of bith as MS.

1. Was Peter born in TN? If so, where? Or, was he born in Tishomingo Co., MS?

2. What was the 1st name of Peter's father?

3. What was the maiden name of Peter's mother?

Peter Thornton married Grace Unknown. Grace was b. 1886 d. 1947.

4. What was Grace's maiden name?

5. When & where did Peter Thornton and Grace marry? I think they married abt. 1912.

The couple & family were listed on the 1930 census living in Iuka.

Peter & Grace Thornton are buried in the Oak Grove Cemetery.

Thanks in advance.
