Dancer b 1831 appears on the 1850 census and we have never located him again. He would have been the right age to serve in the CW but we have located no record of him serving in the war. (6) Samuel Dennis (Sam) Dancer b Oct 1836 d bef 1910 Kaufman Co, TX burial at Terrell in Kaufman Co. Sam m (1) 26 March 1857 Tishomingo Co,MS to Susan Whitaker b 1837 d bef 1876 (2) 1875 [MS/TN? marriage record not located] Nancy Jane Wilds b 1852 TN d 1881 McNairy Co (3) 17 Dec 1885 McNairy Co Louiza Fields and moved immediately to Texas.

P. was a private in Company A, 2nd Miss Reg of Conf States Volunteers, enlistment at Iuka, wounded at the Battle of Gaines Farm. Received a Confederate pension from OK. Kizzie Caroline received a widow's pension after his death. This is probably more than you wanted to know about this family. Stephen Pinkney Dancer is my husband Mayo's great grandfather.

Clemmons 27 May 1885 & if so her name was listed as Mary L. H. Dancer. No further information. The first husband of Emolene was John Morris. We do not have the marriage record for either the Morris marriage or the Dancer marriage. After the death of Elijah Dancer, Emolene and son, W. E. Morris and perhaps the Dancer daughters and families migrated to Texas to live in Parker County. She died in Parker Co and is buried in the Peaster Cemetery as Emolene Morris.

Greetings, Luther Fariss and Susannah Sewell had one daughter who survived to adulthood, Vonbara Fariss b) 1883. She married into the McAfee family and had two children Fariss McAfee and Maurine. There are two other children buried beside Susannah - Paul and Ezra. I assume these are her children as well but do not have anything to verify this. Johnita, I would be glad to exchange Fariss information for Sewell information. I have information going back to 1749. Let me know if you would prefer a gedcom FTW (I have version 4.0) or text report. I am still looking for information on the following from McNairy Co. John H.

I think that there was quite a migration out of Lincoln Co., NC., to several places. My husband's family in Lincoln Co., NC., seems to have gone to McNairy Co., Tn. However, my own ancestors from that county got only as far as White Co., TN., but at a little early time.
