Mr. and Mrs. Josiah or Joshua Gaines children 1.Nimrod Gaines b: 1824 2. John Gaines b:18 May 1827 - Monroe Co., TN died 22 January 1914 Edgewater, CO -buried Crown Hill Cemetery Edgewater, CO John s death certificate said his father was Josiah, no name for his ma. Maybe the person who filled out the death certificate didn't know him very well since they didn't know his mother's name, and Joshua and Josiah sound alike, kinda. The info on a death Cirt. is only as good as the knowledge of the person giving the info. Sometimes if miles away from their home children never meet a grandparent and only go by what they think they heard they called one time of another?? Death Cirt. are not A true source of information, a family bible record would be lots more proof. 3. boy b: 1830-35 4. boy b: 1830-35 5. girl b: 1830-35 6. boy b:1835-40 1840 Monroe County Census; row 157 Gains, Joshua 12110001 - 0100001 This could be his father 1 male age 0-5, 2 male age 5-10, 1 male age 10-15, 1 male age 15-20, 1 male Joshua age 60-60.
