NOTES
- John Inman's first wife, Sarah, was alive and well after John moved from McMinn County to Putnam County between 1850 and 1860. A fellow researcher, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., searched the McMinn County records for a divorce between John and Sarah. However, none was found.
- At least two of the children living in the household of John and Dorcus Inman in 1870 could not have been John's. Albertus and Amanda were living during the 1860 census. John was living with Sarah at this point in time. Viewing the censuses together, Albertus, Amanda, and Mary J. are probably Dorcus's children by a first husband. The youngest child in the house, Emeline, is probably John's. These children have not been located in subsequent censuses.
- Charley Inman is probably the child of John and Martha (Jackson) Inman. No death certificate for Charley has been found.
