William Purser died before 1860 and Eliza Purser died between 1860 and 1870 because three of their children are found on the 1870 Tishomingo Co., MS census in the HH of Zephaniah Harvey Woodall, Jr. and his 3rd wife, Rebecca Elizabeth Wyatt. Zephaniah's 2nd wife was Avarilla Priddy. I have been fortunate enough to acquire Ellen's death certificate and have learned that her mother's maiden name was Priddy. Could Avarilla Priddy Woodall and Eliz Priddy Purser have been sisters? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
