Hi, Barbara Justice and I are looking for a George Kornegay (born ?) (died ?) married Clarrisa Rouse about 1841. They had four known children, John, born December 31, 1843, Sarah born about 1846, James Polk, born about 1848, and Joseph, born about 1849. I have found Clarrisa with the four children on the 1850 Beaver Creek District Jones County, NC census, but no mention of her husband. I found George and Clarrisa married through the researching the Rouse line. (Very little said other than Clarrisa married a George Kornegay) John's line is the one Barbara and my sons are decended from, but we have not been able to go further back than George. We got John's fathers name as George from an older family member and the Rouse line, but cannot seem to find him anywhere. We have Kornegay family living in AL now, but no one has any information that is helpful that far back. I feel that the first George from New Bern is probably family, but can not tie him or his children to our George yet. John's brothers and sister's names are so common that they are not a lot of help either, but maybe someone knows about them. Does James Polk Kornegay help anyone to trigger something to help? John and James were both said to serve in the Confederate part of the Civil War. Thanks for any clues, Loretta Souder johnsou@Aol.com
