My gosh, I am reading old, old e-mails.
My great-grandfather, James Seth Barnes, was born in Webster Parish in about 1854.
I believe he is related to Seth Barnes and Hugh Aylmer Barnes, as my grandfather was named Aylmer Jack Barnes.
Unfortunately, the 1860 and 1870 census records are no help.

I checked the 1880 and 2000 Webster Parish censuses (as you know there is no 1890 census) and could find no JEFFERSON DAVIS MIMS, T. J., or J. T MIMS who would seem to fit.
There is a THOMAS MIMS in the 1900 census whose occupation is listed as Retail ??.

Will check with my MIMS expert and write the author of the group sheet you forwarded and advis

Hi R. W., and thanks for the reply.
I really have no way of knowing if JEFFERSON DAVIS MIMS is "POMP" because all I have to go on is the family story in my message.
I did receive the below private message which identifies T.T. or J. T. MIMS as the sheriff of Webster Parish for the same dates you ident

Again, I think your info is correct.
I did a little further checking and based on the information on the James D. Mims family in the 1850 Bienville Parish Census and the information Jefferson B. Mims provided on the 1880 and 1910 Census it would seem he belongs to that family.
I also found a post to another we

Thanks for the information, John.
Looks like nothing to my grandmother's story that the entire family died of "lung fever."

I have not yet been able to devote much time to Sheriff Mims, as I've hit a brick wall of sorts on the Sheriff just before him. However, I have learned some facts, that a
