Hi Pruitt researchers, My focus of interest is Elizabeth Pruitt, b. 1821 in Madison Co., IL, daughter of Solomon Pruitt(1790 VA-1875 IL)and Rebecca Higgins. Elizabeth married Thomas R. Jones in 1837,in Madison Co., IL and had 6 children before disappearing from local records by 1850. When/where did she die? What happened to Thomas R. Jones after 1850? This Pruitt line can be traced back to Wm. Pruitt Sr. and wife Mary Martin in VA, early 1700's. Others ended up in AL, TN, and NC. Thanks for any help! Dorothy Wilson in Mtn. View, CA
