Linda, I can't thank you enough. This info is very helpful. Also, the nearest library with a genealogy section is a distance away, so you have saved me a trip. I wonder if someone on the list would possibly have the 1830 Marion Co., AL, census listing for Elijah STANFORD, or he could be living in another Stanford household? This is a second marriage for the wife and I'm trying to determine if these older children are all her's and first husband, who died in 1838. Don't know whether Elijah was previously married. Thank you very much, Claudia 1840 Marion County, Alabama - Township not stated - Roll 3/page 55 Elijah Stanford - 21111101 - 102101 - no slaves - Total 13 (2 free white males aged under 5, 1 aged 5-10, 1 aged 10-15, 1 aged 15-20, 1 aged 20-30, 1 aged 30-40, 1 aged 50-60 - 1 free white female aged under 5, 2 aged 10-15, 1 aged 15-20, 1 aged 30-40) Next household: William Stanford, Jr. - 0300001 - 001 (3 free white males aged 5-10, 1 aged 40-50 - 1 free white female aged 10-15) Good luck!

1830 Marion Co, AL, page Elijah Stanford: one male less than 5 one male 5 to 10 one male 15 to 20 one male 20 to 30 one female less than 5 one female 20 to 30 In comparing this to the 1840, it appears that the oldest male in the 1840 record is not Elijah - maybe his father, other relative or boarder. jcl wrote: > Linda, > > I can't thank you enough.
