William and Minerva SEALS WILBURN were married in Claiborne Co, TN and were
listed on the 1850 TN census in Hancock Co, TN. By the 1860 census, William
and family were in Pulaski Co, KY with 6 children. In 1870, William's son
Solomon is still in Pulaski Co, KY with his wife and family, but there is no
sign of William and Minerva in this or any neighboring county. Any clues??

Would love to hear from anyone who has any ties to the Wilburn (or affiliated)
family in ANY location and will gladly share any info that I have!
