I think you might find Lonnie Martin Sexton liviing in Elk Creek, Grayson Co., Virginia; 01 Jun 1880 Census. There is a boy, no name, born Apr; with grandparents Hardin (57) and Rosamond 60 and mother Julia A 19. No Name Sexton’s father’s birth location is listed as not known. Hope this helps.
I am searching for my grandfathers family, and have had no luck yet! His name was Lonnie Martin Sexton born 4/24/1880 in VA. No family left to ask, no family bibles, some spelllings of his first name, were Lon, Loney. We have done (brother) the ancestry dna, and are in the Smith Family Group on Ancestry.com., so I know I am getting close. Please, any help would greatly appreciated.
My grandmother was married to him and they show up in Mineral Creek, Lewis Co. WA State, 1910. In that Census, he was born in VA, mother VA, but it says father NY. Thanks, Joyce
