I have been unable to find any trace of my 3 great grandparents--Noah and Hannah HICKS KELLEY in TN beyond their marriage in Wilson Co. in 1806. In census records from IL beginning in the 1850 on range the six children I am convinced are theirs (James, b. ca 1809, Silas, b. ca. 1812, Elizabeth, b. ca 1814, Isaac b. 1819/20 (my direct line), Martha, b. ca 1821, and Noah, b. ca 1823) list their place of birth as TN. Yet, I am unable to find Noah listed as head of household in TN anywhere. He is not in the 1820 or 1830 federal census (I am waiting for a copy of Montgomery Co, IL 1840 to see which Noah, father or son). He is not in the 1815, nor 1832, nor the one conducted from 1796-1808. It has been suggested they might have been living with relatives and there fore not the head of household. I don't know names of Kelley's, and Richard HICKS, Hannah's father is not listed in the TN 1820. Suggestions? Pat in WA State
