• • ** 8. Emma / Emily Mahaffey, born c 1852. She married Freeman W. Touchstone on 12 December 1878 In Simpson Co., MISSISSIPPI Freeman is the son of Green Powell Touchstone, & Cyrena Hall, I fin

d him aged 18 years In the 1870 census of Simpson Co MISSISSIPPI where he is living with his parents, so his birth year would be c1852. * One researcher shows that Freeman had married to Frances Ga tes on 13 January 1876, prior to marrying Emily. *** An 1870 Simpson Co census shows an Emily Mahaffey, aged 18, is living with Albert. However, she is not In the 1860 census. Kevin Davis, whom I have never met, but who is said to be very thorough In his genealogical research states that she was the daughter of Robert & Catherine, and so I will accept that. I wonder if she might be the sa me as Martha. Emily and Freeman moved to Louisiana, according to Kevin Davis, and had several children, but I have not as yet located them on any of my records * * 7.
