Notes

1860 U.S census, Jack Co., TX, Jackboro P.O., p. 364, #644/652:

James, his wife, and two of their children were killed near the line of Parker and Jack counties in 1860 (Dallas Times Herald, 5 Dec 1860, as reported in McKinney Maze, IX (1991), p. 32).  In view of the above census record, that year must be incorrect.  According to Mildred McKinney Gee's  book, he died in 1865:  he, his wife, and a young son and daughter were massacred by Indians.  A son, aged 3, named Joe, was injured and left to die, but was rescued.  Joe later lived with relatives--with Sarah Ellen McKinney Harris and with his Uncle William McKinney while attending Trinity University.  In 1869 a citation notice concerning the estate of James McKinney, Sr., was addressed to "the unknown heirs of James McKinney deceased of Jacksborough Texas."

 

        Child of James McKinney and Cyntha ?? is:

                   i.       JOE⁵ MCKINNEY, b. Abt 1862; d. Unknown.
