claim:james-jt-mixon:name:1nameJames T. “J.T.” Mixon

Family notes identify J.T. Mixon as an earlier ancestor and husband of Mary Parlee Travis. Their 1879 marriage is corroborated. FamilySearch lists James Teacle Mixon with matching spouse/child context; the identity merge and parent-child bridge to William Bennie Mixon remain conditional until records are reviewed.

claim:james-jt-mixon:parent-of:1parent-ofparent-of William Bennie Mixon (hypothesis)

Two independent tier-3 compilations now assert it: the Find a Grave contributor links William Bennie, Etta Selena, Alva Z. and Millard John as the children of James T. Mixon and Mary Pauline Travis Mixon, and the Mixsonian compilation's own descent line places “JAMES TEACLE MIXON” above William Benjamin H. Neither is a record and neither promotes the bridge: the claim keeps basis “hypothesis” and is drawn dashed and badged unproven, and the dataset's rule holds a hypothesis at conditional or needs-verification, so the status is unchanged. The record check is the 1900 Amite County census household of J.T. Mixon, whose images are online but unindexed (question:william-bennie-mixon:parents-and-children).

Conflicts and open questions

  • Question question:william-bennie-mixon:parents-and-children (open)

    Who were William Bennie Mixon's parents (two compiled sources pair him with J.T. Mixon and Mary Pauline Travis, whose given name is “Mary Parlee” in the family notes and “Mary P” in the marriage index; a handwritten note names his mother as Ann Brabham, née Hurst), were Alvin, Millard and Eda his siblings — their compiled counterparts are Alva Z. (1890–1974), Millard John (1892–1964) and Etta Selena (1880–1957) — and is Tynes Emery Mixon Sr. his and Myrtis Blanche Brabham's son?

    Next: Read the 1900 Amite County census images, which MSGenWeb publishes complete but unindexed, for the Beat around the Mixon Cemetery (about 31.13 N, 90.57 W): a household of J.T. Mixon holding a son “William B., Dec 1884” with Etta, Alva and Millard would settle the parent link and the sibling list as enumerated, and would show whether any “Ann” lived there. Then the 1910 household of William B. with a son Tynes, and the Mississippi death certificates of Myrtis (1949) and William Bennie (1962), each of which names the decedent's parents (request only). On the Ann Hurst note, two negatives of 2026-10-08 hold: no Hurst and no Brabham grave in the 80-row cemetery list, and no Brabham–Hurst marriage in either direction in the Amite index. The one observation worth testing is that Myrtis's own sister Louella E. Brabham (1881–1981) married a Hurst, which may be the origin of a garbled “Ann Brabham, née Hurst”; it is a possibility to test against the census, never a claim, and no person is created to fit the note.
