My g-g grandmother is Mary Etta VARDEMAN, who was born ca 1821 in Mississippi. She was married first to a WALLIS/WALLACE and second to Henry Strickland WHITE of Amite County, Mississippi. Mary Etta and Henry WHITE can be located in Sabine County, Texas at the time of the 1860 census. I was trying to locate Mary Etta on the 1850 census, with her first husband, and MAY have found them in Lawrence. This is the listing below. 29-29 Wallis, Thomson 32 M W Farmer $50 Miss Wallis, Maretta 29 F W Miss Wallis, Elizabeth 3 F W Miss Wallis, Sophia 1 F W Miss The names, ages and birthplaces for Maretta, Elizabeth and Sophia match their later census listings for Sabine County, Texas. The biggest discrepency is that in 1860, there was also a 12 year old Joseph Wallis listed in the household. He is not listed on the 1850 Mississipi census. Other Wallis's in Lawrence County, also in 1850, include: 30-30 Wallis, James A 27 M W Farmer Miss Wallis, Nancy W 18 F W Miss Wallis, Sarah M 1 F W Miss 32-32 Wallis, Thomson Sr.62 M W Farmer 350 So Car Wallis, C?ary 62 F W Ga Wallis, Clementina 22 F W Miss Wallis, Martin 21 M W Miss Collins, Centhia 18 F W La? Anyone else researching these Wallaces? Perhaps someone could help me confirm or refute that this is the same family. Are their marriage records for Lawrence County, Miss online?
