SE Notes: Samuel S "Stockwell" Combs and wife Mary Ann PINKLEY resided in Clay Co, IN where their son James Wilson Combs was born in 1847. The above census record indicates they stopped in Illinois prior to their arrival in Iowa which appears to have occurred within the year. Next found in Delaware Co, IA in 1860.
