Notes |
- James appears to be the son of Malinda Martin and her first husband Jesse Lawless. In the 1860 census, his last name is indicated as "Golis" along with two older siblings who were definitely children of Malinda and Jesse. On the census listing, the children of Etheldred are listed first in descending age order (2 by Sarah Martin and 1 by Malinda Martin) followed by three "Golis" children who are also listed in descending age order. James was the youngest of these "Golis" children. Apparently James later assumed the last name of his stepfather Etheldred Futrell, because his marriage license with Margaret Bennett on 04 MAY 1870 in Roane County shows him as James Futrell.
