I am looking for information on the way these families intersect. My gggrandfather Joseph Canada was born in either SC or AL in about 1832. I am looking for his parents, but cannot find them. Joseph was in Randolph County, Arkansas in 1852, 1860, 1868 and then either died or moved. He no longer shows up on the Census or any records I could find. I know that he had two children between 1860 and 1868, Mary J. in 1964 , and Leander or Lee in 1868-9. Joseph married Elizabeth (Betsy) Jane Robinson DEC 1852. The had 7 children in all, although I can only find 6. James J. born 1853, Arabella 1855, William R. 1858, General Jackson 1862. Several of the Canada's and Wilson were on the Lawrence County, AR Census and I want to know if any of this sounds familiar to anyone on this page.
