  • Notes 

    • - not mentioned in Elijah's probate records (1862-1872) - actually 1868-1872 in court records

      - 1850 census shows born in IL - age 10 - no other children born in IL - possibly be a nephew?

      - military records say he was born in Decaur Co, TN - age 28 at time of death (born 1836?)
