I have traced this couple from their marriage 1811 in Putnam Co. to Twiggs in the 1820's and 1830's to Pike and Monroe Co. The family in the 1830 Twigg's census shows 2 more children than I can find records for. The children I know are: sons Charles Alexander, John L., Matthew Robinson and daughters Mary Jane and Nancy Fleming. John died in 1838 in Pike Co. Family say he was a carpenter. All the sons went to Texas in 1858 to Lavaca Co. Both daughters and Nellie (remarried H. Willis) went to Alabama. Mary Jane had married Wm. P. Ross and they settled in then Talladega Co., Ala. near Pinkneyville and finally Brownville (now Clay Co., Ala). Nancy Fleming Allen had married Wiley F. Wadsworth and also went to Ala. but returned briefly to Georgia and joined her brothers in Texas by 1860. Any bells?
