Hi list; New subscriber seeking info on my great grandparents. According to the 1880 LDS index-Marshal, AL TWP 7, National Archives film T9-0024 page 185A the Marshall County census showed my great grandparents living in Oleander with the following info: John Merritt age 27 born TN (this is my great grandfather) Emily L. age 20 born AL (this was my great grandmother, maiden name Black) James W. (my grandfather) age 3 born AL Sarah E. age 2 born AL Joanna age 3m born AL This was the first I knew my grandfather had siblings and it is possible others were born after this census. Any info regarding this Merritt family or Emily L. Black Merritt's family would be greatly appreciated. This is my brick wall. Thanks so much!
