He was b. 1798 d.4/2/83, she was b. 1806 d. 5/22/1874. Jeffersons headstone says J. J. Riddle b.1838 d. 9/4/1891 I'm Royce Riddle, I'm new to the Riddle List. I'm trying to track my family I've done pretty well till now. My g grandfather is Robert Henry Riddle b. 1875 d. 1945 Crawford co. AR. Wife Lizzie B. Montgomery. Roberts parrents are Jeff Riddle b.1838 in AL. d. abt. 1881 wife is Laura Catherine Rainwater b. abt 1947 TN. Jeff's parents are (according to 1850 washington co. Illinois, township AR. census) Mathew Riddle 46 at that time birthstate is listed as NC. I've also seen this in 1860 census, wife is Roda Riddle 36 birhstate as TN. According to childrens age and birthstate they were in AL. from at least 1827. He had land in Crawford co. AR. in 1860, But he was there for 1850 census. I found a Matthew in Jackson county AL. in 1940 census. But I can't find anything in NC. on him this is all I know I'm open to any ideas. e-mail rbuiltco@aol.com Royce Riddle in OK
