I'm a genealogy freak and a cheapskate. I'm too lazy to pay for genealogy reasearch, yet I've done well. I've gotten up to my fourth great-grandparents on every branch of my family tree. I'm trying to push further now though, and am finding it very tough. I'm looking for any information anyone can give me on Henry Clow from the 1870 census. He is listed on that census as Henry Cloe. He lived in Harris County, Texas, and was born in Texas around 1863-1864. I'm really looking to see who his parents were, where they were born, his brothers and sisters, etc. His death certificate says that he lived in Fairbank (which is now Fairbanks, a suburb of Houston, Texas that was annexed in 1956) Any information from the 1870 census would be great. Thank you.
Thank you so much. Do you have any more info on John Clow from that census?
