bullet  Research Notes:

I do not know what happened to Eliza Jane Mellen...still researching. I also do not know James' parents but believe he descended off the Asa Divoll lines as they were all in Topsham, VT from 1800 on where all of Asa's children were born between 1800 and 1820. Asa died in 1830 so he is not the father but the probable grandfather. Asa had 9 sons and any of them could be the father: George b. 1800 who lives with James in California for awhile and works as a miner; Josiah b. 1807 had no known sons named James and in 1840 was living in Topsham but had 2 sons born between 1835-1840 and they would be known sons Charles b. 1835 and Morris born 1840 ; Daniel b. 1809 that I can't locate in any census after 1820; Lucius b. 1810 who in 1840 had one son born 1835-1840 which would be his son George E. born 1838; Levi b. 1814 only 17 yrs old in 1831 and seems too young and Asa b. 1812 who died in 1891. Willard, Horace and Ira all too young. It would appear his father could be Daniel or Asa. Asa single in 1850 and living with married brother Josiah at age 35 [wrongly transcribed as 55]; in 1860 Asa is still single and lives with sister Saloma who is also single. Next door is married brother Horace and down the street is married brother Lucius.1870 have not found him yet 1880 Asa is living with his neice Emily [Mrs. John Taggart] and her son Charles in Topsham and listed as "Uncle"and single at age 67.
