  • Tarlton and family moved to Lauderdale County, TN in 1839 and are listed in the 1850 LaudCtyTN Census census. (His name was spelled "Tailton").

  • They moved to Mississippi between 1850 and 1856.

    Not sure why Dudly is listed as "female" - maybe a type-o, or it was not "Dudley" at all, but rather "Dorothy" or "Dolly". It probably IS Dudley because Tarlton had a brother named Dudley D. Durham. More research needed.
