Yancy, age 23 born GA and Sarah, age 18 born GA, were found in the 1850 Georgia Census, Meriwether County with oldest son, James W. age 1

At this time we do not know his father, but there is a record of a Yancy Thornton born 1768 died 1814 son of John Thornton in VA and NC who later moved to GA. Could this Yancy have been our Yancy Thornton's Grandfather?

Here is a great site on early THORNTON's.
