I have posted below what information I have. Obviously, Eli being remarried will need to be taken into account. This is based on census data that Don has graciously provided me, letters from one of Eli's daughters (Rachel) to my grandmother (Maggie Cheek Sherman) and great-grandmother (Mahala Sasser Cheek), and from the Sasser Book. I also have some data from the Soc. Sec. Death Index, but this needs to be confirmed (please consider this to be a family tree that is "under construction.")
