Joan, I have wondered about a neighbor of my direct WALL line, named George FOUST, son of Jacob and Sophia CLAPP Foust, who was born about 1808 in Knox Co., TN but lived in Randolph Co., NC in 1850 and 1860, then he and his family disappeared. He was married to Clarissa CLAPP. I never was able to find out what happened to him and his two sons, and very much would like to know. In 1860, shortly before the census was taken, his son Lewis W. FOUST (1837- ????) was named as father of a baby (girl, listed as Margeret E. WALL on the 1860 census) of Hannah WALL's, two years before my great grandfather was born to Hannah WALL. Hannah Wall (c1839-1870) was buried in Providence Friends Meeting Cemetery (Quaker) near Level Cross, Randolph Co., NC. One of the lone burials there is Margerry Ellen WALLS, but no birth date or age was given in the record though she was buried on 15 August 1863. I assume she must have died young, but can't support this further without knowing more about cemetery burial and record keeping traditions of that time and place. Hannah WALL was a daughter of Wiley and Jereter WALL; Jereter WALL herself was disowned from Providence Preparative Meeting on Feb. 15, 1840. Let me know if anyone has further information on George and his sons. (Henry FOUST was his younger son) Thanks.
