I am searching for the family of Mary Ella ARGROVES from Meriwether County. Mary Ella married William Porter TIDWELL in 1883. Their child John Edd TIDWELL was my grandfather. I am guessing that Mary Ella was probably born between 1860-1870 as John Edd was born in 1890. I think that Allen ARGROVES (see below) was Mary Ella's grandfather. If anyone is doing research on the ARGROVES family or knows someone who is please contact me at Cari75@aol.com. 1850 Census, Georgia, Meriwether County 1064 ARGROVES, Allen 60 M Miller SC Mary A. 39 F SC Nancy C. 20 F SC Mathias M. 16 M F GA Sarah F. F 14 GA Mary E. 12 F GA Allen W. 10 M GA Clarissa H. 8 F GA Martin V. B. 6 M GA Moved from SC to GA between 1830-1834 My grandfather John Edd TIDWELL referred to an Uncle Sut, who was probably Benjamin Sutley ARGROVES, the son of Mathias who is listed above. Thank you so much for any help you can possibly give. Cari
