One of my Elijah's older brothers was also James but he was born in Virginia. The family moved to TN but in 1816 James and his father, William, left Grainger County, TN and travelled in Kentucky and Illinios. William ended up in Madison County, Missouri but James returned to TN but I think on the western side. He isn't my direct line so I don't know quite as much about him. I do know that some of his descendants ended up in southern Missouri around Springfield.

Searching for information on relatives of Gertrude Viola MITCHELL. She was born in 1887 in possibly Indiana and died July 2, 1966 in Dodgeville, Iowa Co., WI. She is buried in the Evergreen Cemetery in Shullsburg, LaFayette Co., WI. On August 8, 1906, she married my great-grandfather George William HUGHES in Michigan. She was also married to a Robert HEATER (sp?). Her dad is believed to be Albert MITCHELL (no dates available) and her sibling are: Gaylen, Harold, Guy, LeRoy, Kate, Helen, Grace, and Ivan. Any help on this mystery is greatly appreciated!
