Surnames: Stephenson, Jackson, Donelson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/BMB.2ACE/1201 Message Board Post: I have just discovered that my gr-gr-grandfather, David Stephenson, born 25 December, 1825, in Louisville, Ky., had a sister, Sadie. The children were orphaned ca. 1828, and David went to live with his aunt, Polly Stephenson in Carrollton, Mo. It is not known if Sadie went there also, or not. David married Louisa Griffith, in 1856 in Nodaway County. David and Sadie may have been related to President Andrew Jackson and his wife, Rachel Donelson Jackson. Does anyone have any information regarding any Stephenson families who were related to the Jackson or Donelson families in some way? Many thanks, Dennis.
