   BIRTH-RESIDENCE-CENSUS-MARRIAGE-DEATH: In an article titled: "William and Milly Austin of Anderson County, Tennessee," which appeared in the Feb1982 edition of  AUSTINS OF AMERICA, The Austin Print, Concord, MA, p 31, Janet Austin Curtis  gives John b. 17 Feb 1787 in Virginia (citing the date given in the 1802  Anderson County Pleas and Quarterly Court Minutes of Session 4, Dec 1802, d.  Apr 1850, aged 59 (from Dade Co. mortality schedule), a resident of Dade  County, Georgia. Curtis notes from the 1850 Census of Dade County, District 21  (enumerated Oct 1850) John's family: "Mary Austin 53 b. TN, William 24, Daniel  18, Delia 12, and Mary 8 , all born in AL." Curtis identifies Mary as John's  second wife, and supposes that the daughter Mary is by this second wife. Not  enumerated were Emily b. 1925 - probably married and out of the house, Emily b.  abt. 1828 and James S. b. abt 1834, the two of them presumably having died  young before the 1850 census was enumerated. Curtis' data here is augmented  from that supplied by Homer and Kathy Austin CO (1978).  A letter from them  indicates a family Bible of Daniel Wesley Austin to be in the hands of William  Arthur Austin of Ft. Worth, TX.
