51 Va. Inf by James Davis:
John C. Inman Pvt Co B. 7/31/61 Wytheville; medical discharge 5/12/63
chronic gastritis; born Wythe Co.; age 25, 5'10" dark complexion, dark
eyes, black hair. Alive 1912.

Crockett's list - this was a reference made in the book Wythe County,
Virginia, A Bicentennial History by Mary B. Kegley - details about this
list are included in this book:
John Crockett Inman June 5, 1838-Feb 4, 1920, Co B. 51st Va Inf.; buried
Marvin Cemetery; age 60 in 1899, Pvt. Co B, 51st Va Inf.; enlisted April
1862, served 3 years.

1860 Wythe Co. 68th District 906-1405-1244
Inman Elizabeth 40 f farming NC 1820
Inman Jessie 26 m NC 1834
Inman William 24 m NC 1836
Inman John 22 m NC 1838
Literal Flem??? 11 m serving Va 1849
Believe this is John (living with his mother), thereby suggesting Mary Mabe
died between 1858 and 1860. Adding Jessie and William as his siblings.

Inman Eliza J 31 wife keeping house 1849

Inman Riley E. 11 son 1869
Inman Charles 8 son 1872
Inman James W. 5 son 1875
Inman Bettie J. 2 daughter 1878
The website outline above, has Riley and John's date's reversed based on
this census.

1900 Wythe Co. Fort Chiswell SD 9 ED 135 PG 11a D 177 F 185

Inman Riley E. son Nov 1870 29 Va Farm laborer
Inman Alverta daughter Sep 1887 12 Va at school
Inman Lee A. son Oct 1890 9 Va at school

His kids were a challange - 1900 9 born - 7 alive

1880 John W. L. 13 1867
1880 Riley E. 11 1869
1900 Riley E. 29 1870-Nov
Since I can't sort this out, I'm treating 1870 Riley and 1880/1900 Riley as
2 different kids; also treating William F. and John W.L. as 2 different kids

1910 found widowed living with son James

MARGARET L MABE, b. Abt. February 1845, Virginia; d. September 13, 1903, Wythe County, Virginia; m. JAMES C. COLLINS, October 09, 1865, Wythe County, Virginia; b. Abt. 1828; d. December 13, 1903, Wythe County, Virginia.

C. Brown, had not remarried, living in Wytheville with Emory Cassell.

Emory must be her brother-inlaw

Margaret L. (Mabe) Collins pension records gives some more detailed
information - James died on September 13, 1903 from heart trouble and
dropsy. Her middle initial is L. The application was completed on
February 20, 1904, claims she is 58 years old - if her marriage age and
census age were right, she would have been closer to 62. She claims she
lived in Wythe County all her life except for two years - didn't say
where they were. Confirmed marriage date - October 9, 1865. James died
in Wythe County and at the time of application she was living with Emory
Cassell in Wytheville - I guess a nephew. She gave James' cause of
death as old age and dropsy - written, "dropsy" looks like "dreams".

Guess none of us will be going to sleep tonight.
