I started a new spurt of research this weekend, and thanks to a trial membership at ancestry.com, I've found some new census records documenting James Lampkin Bouldin's father as John Green Bouldin, married to Sarah (or Sara). The 1850 US Census of Grant Co, Wisconsin lists John Green Bouldin and Sarah, with children Elizabeth, Rachel, William F, Mary C, John T, Nancy, James L, and George S.
The 1860 US Census of Fillmore Co, Minnesota lists J G "Bolin" and Sarah "Bolin"with children Mary C, John T, J G, Nancy, G S, and Ira. With all the other information matching, I'm convinced the misspelling is a mistake.
This isn't new information, but documentation of information I had. Though it appears multiple times on rootsweb.com, I was not convinced we all had the correct information until I found the census records.
Tobl4136, on rootsweb.com, appears to have very good documentation of the Bouldin line. I'll be pouring over those records next.
