Hello,

Please post additional information to your "incomplete" query. You have provided absolutely no dates (not even approximate). There is no way to establish any type of time line. Without dates, there is no way for me or anyone to know if you are 25 years old and asking about someone born in the 1940's, or if you are 60 years old and asking about someone born in the 1870's. All Fed. Census records go only up to 1920 and for Bell Co., the 1920 has not been transcribed into book form. It would have to be viewed on microfilm.

Also, since Floyd BROUGHTON and Elizabeth MURRY were your grandparents, please also add in who your parent is who is their child so we have that name & dates (again, even if approximate). If you happen to know the names of any of their other children, please provide that. This helps to rule out one family over the other.

The name, Floyd BROUGHTON, appears probably over 10 times in various records and they are all different Floyd BROUGHTONS.
