Daughter of Preston and Charlotte “Lottie” Bedford Peters.   In 1880, they were living in Oak Bowery, however, at some point in time, these family members began to migrate.  Some to Opelika, and others to Ohio.  According to records, Cora was born around 1895  (15 Years after the 1880 Census) in Opelika, Lee County, Alabama, but died September 20, 1953,  in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.

The first time I encountered this Jim, was in the 1900 Census record.

The question is “Who was this Jim Peters, in connection with our great great grandfather Jim?”   He could have been another of Jim’s sons.    He was very close in age to Hal who was 45 when the 1900 Census was taken.  And like  John, Hal Preston, Henry, James and Sweed, he was born in Georgia, his father was born in Georgia, but he stated that his mother was from South Carolina.  Could this have been a mistake?

Another burning question I have is:  “Could Jim have been Hal’s twin brother?”  They were too close together in age (both born around 1855).  It’s possible that Hal could have been born early in 1855, and Jim could have been born in December of that same year.  But, at the moment, it’s just a GUESS…. CONJECTURE!
