      Jackson County Birth Records:
      Eliza Landon, 3/27/1853, Thomas Landon, RF Sandy, reported by Mrs Jno Low, Midwife
      Sarah V Kinser, 7/1859, Valentine Kinser & Eliza, Pond Creek, Jackson Co, farmer, reported by Eliza Landon, mother
      [ Pond Creek is located where Jackson County meets Wood County at the Ohio River. Since Eliza is still living with Thomas a year after this birth, I doubt that she really reported it as a Kinser birth. This birth record was typed, was a mistake made when the written records were typed or when it was written? It does not appear to be reported as a Landon birth, and the Kinsers lived about as far away from the Landons as you can get and still be in Jackson County, so it's not likely Valentine was the father.]

      Jas E Landon, male, 4/11/1859, Thos Landon & Lucinda, Elk Fork, cert signed by Alex Litton, reported by father [Is this another error of the last name?]
