LeeAnn:
I have a couple of thought.
The information on the death certificate is only as reliable as person
giving it. If a neighbor/friend was giving the info it may not be accurate.
On the other hand, if your g-g grandmother was indeed the child of Grover
and Bowers, was she adopted by Steets. Just a thought. I have the 1850
census available to me; will see is there are any leads there.
Good luck,
Sybil

Yes, birthdates would be great for any of the people I mentioned, if that
is
possible. More than anything I
would like to find out what the relationship between Benjamin Sheets
and
Elnora Catherine Sheets was...if there
was a relationship. I found that she went by Catherine or Katie. I
also
found Benjamin, Joshua, Lydia and a
Catherine on the 1860 census, but it was the cd version and it
doesn't
list relationships. Catherine was my g-g
grandmother and I can't find her parents. This whole family is
really
complicated! Her maiden name is listed
as Sheets on the WPA and her marriage license, but on her death
certificate the Madison County Health Dept. has
her parents listed as Isaac Grove and Susan Bowers. I'm at my
wits end!
Catherine married Martin Rodecap in
1876/1877 (that date just depends on where you look and who you
ask).
