James Madison McCool was born in September 1827 in
Georgia and died in January 1904.  He was married in
1867 to Louisa Mariah Burnettt.  James was found in the
1860 Wayne County Census, at age 32, living in the
household of James and Elizabeth Willis Highsmith.

He was the son of William McCool, a Methodist minister,
who was born in South Carolina; and Lucretia Highsmith,
born in Pitts County, North Carolina, and died sometime
after 1860.  James' mother, Lucretia, was the daughter
of Jacob Highsmith, a Revolutionary Soldier, and Sarah
Highsmith. Lucretia's grandfather, John Highsmith, was
also in the Revolutionary War.
