King. Iredell was born 1804 in North Carolina, married Nancy Elizabeth Hughes the daughter of Jesse Hughes Jr. Kids were Samantha b. 1836, James 1839 John 1839, Ben 1845, George 1850, and Sophrenia 1842. Obit says James died in 1922 at age 82. He was a Union soldier in the War Between the States. Says his son Ben died before Dad in "the prime of his manhood". If you're not familiar with Jesse Hughes punch him into Yahoo or see the Jackson gen page or WV history sites. He was quite a guy. Recently found out he's my multiple gr-gr-gr uncle.
