• Notes

  !NOTES:In the Beck Sams book, she has this James Sams as a son of Rev. John B. Sams, but he has a younger son named James who overlaps with this one. It makes more sense to put this James as a son of Joseph M. Sams instead, though I don't know if there is any proof of that connection either; !CENSUS:1810 Clark Co., KY p. 667 James Sames age 26-44 (1765/84) 10010-10100-0-0; !CENSUS:1820; !CENSUS:1830 Henry Co., KY p. 281 James Sams age 40-49 (1780/1790) 1111001-202101;
