Roxann, The Statum name is common to Tennessee in this time frame and I didn't find it in NC. This may be a clue to where this family came from. Regards, Randy 1850 Census Dwelling # 138 Richard & Sarah Nevill Age 47, b. 1803 NC, NC They are living in the same home as Dodson Nevill in 1840. I checked names in North Carolina and didn't find anything. They and Dodson may have been in Montgomery with one of the Nevill Families. When checking the census on Montgomery County. George is missing in 1830. 1850 Census Zachariah 25 & Eliza Nevill Age 24 b.1825, 1824 NC & NC Lydia Nevill age 8 Cuzzy M. age 6 Griffin T. age 2 Jane (Nevill?) Statum Lydia Nevill Age 75 b.1775 NC
