Augustus was a son of John A. James and Rhoda Strong. His grandfather was Joseph Strong.
Augustus was married 1st to Lucinda Swinney, and 2nd to Nancy (Nannie) Coats.
Augustus' marker gives his birth date as 1836. !900 census gives it as 1837. All other census makes it out about 1838. His brother Jesse (my great grandfather) was born Mar 4, 1836 and he was older than Augustus. So I count his birthday as May 3, 1838.
