I know that Henery Fesperman migrated to Carroll County Arkansas from North Carolina and died there sometime after 1841. He is included on the TAX LIST-1841, CARROLL COUNTY, ARKANSAS. I have an ELIZABETH FESPERMAN b. 7 sep 1797, d. 31 Aug 1851; married Thomas Mason, Jr., 29 Oct 1825. I also have ELIZABETH FESPERMAN, b. 03 Dec 1806, d. Aug 1851 (parent were Fredrick Fesperman & Rosina (Rosannah) Hise of Rowan County, NC). I have often thought that FREDERICK FESPERMAN & wife, Anna Barbara Ritchey, who migrated to Orleans, Orange County, Indiana about 1800-1810 probably had children that we don't know about. Maybe your Elizabeth belonged to them. Best regards, Raymond
