Notes: Not known if above Elizabeth is var. sp. of surname Combs; however, also note that the 1850 TN Census Index includes a Tilmun COMM, and both he and Elizabeth COMM are listed in Obion District 1, p. 19 (per Census Index which also lists an Elizabeth and Tilmun COMM in 1st District of Robertson Co, Tennessee [sic] on page 19,apparently an error in Index?). SW: Tilman, Tilghman.
