Francis A. and Patsey are my ggg grandparents. In 1850 they lived in Hardin County, IL
near the present Cave-in-Rock and had 6 children (William, Nancy, Lucy, Martha, Garrett,
and James). In the 1850 census their family name was listed as Cavanaugh. In the 1830 and
1840 censuses the family was in Cocke County, TN and listed correctly as Cavender. Francis
and Patsey are buried at the Shewmaker Cemetery in rural Cave-in-Rock along with several
of their descendents including my great grandfather (who carved the headstones), my
grandmother, my mother and all of her siblings.
I have no record of Celia Jane, but Francis and Patsey had 7 girls living with them in
1840. Could Celia be one of them?
