Searching for information regarding Elisha VINZANT b. Unknown in Tennessee (county unknown) and d. 1844 in Newton County, Missouri. He married Ellender LEE, b June 24, 1810 in Tennessee (county unknown); d February 17, 1884 in Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana. They had the following children: David Marion Vinzant, b. 1837, Tennessee (county unknown); m. Sarah Matilda MAY, December 27, 1860, Monroe County, Indiana; d. March 21, 1892, Pickering, Nodaway County, Missouri. Ellen Vinzant, b. Tennessee (?) no other information. It is said that she married an unknown BROWN. William Everment Vinzant, b. June 17, 1844, Neosho, Newton County, Missouri; m. Rebecca East, February 17, 1867 in Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana; d. October 19, 1935, Decatur, Macon County, Illinois. In 1900 census, David shows father being born in Tennessee. Brother indicates father born in France. Could this be because France claimed a section of Tennessee when Elisha was born? So many questions and unfortunately, so few answers. Elisha and Ellender are very evasive. I have been searching 30 plus years and have found nothing. Any help is appreciated!
