I just found out that the daughter of Elija & Nancy (Clifton) Wainscot) was the Nancy Hays that was listed in Charles Clifton will 1895. "To my adopted daughter Nancy Hays married to J. T. Hays...." Nancy (Wainscot) Hays was born 1854 or 1864 2 records different dates The only Elija I have in my dada base was born 1837 and the son of Washington & Meariah (Cifton) Wainscot. He could be the father of Nancy b 1854/64 I am trying to ID her mother Nancy Clifton and see if this is the correct Elija. Anyone have any ideas on this one?? Any clues?? Thanks Barbara
