Surnames: Mericle Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/iJB.2ACE/691 Message Board Post: Does anyone have any information on a William C. Mericle that is listed on the Alcorn County 1870 census, Kosseth Post Office? He was born about 1846 in Miss. He is married to Sarah A. Alabama Parrish who was born about 1851. They have one child, a daughter named Ann. I think William must have died some time between 1876 and early 1880. In the 1880 Hunt County, Texas census Sarah and her children, Anna, James, John and Giles are living with her brother and family with no sign of William! Can anyone help me? Thanks, LaJoy
