Emelia Ann appears in all of the census with Hannah and Jeremiah as a daughter even as
late as the 1880 census. By this I am assuming that she never married. I've never
been able to find a 1850 census for Jeremiah and Hannah, have you?
When you look at the names listed on the back of the picture you sent me the link to there
is a Helvie just before J. Priest. It is hard to make out but it could be G.A. Helvie.
I have a George Abraham Helvie b July 8, 1812 VA and d 23 March 1894 Delaware Co IN. This
must be the Emelia's uncle that referenced her in his will and also the same one in
the picture.
Once more thanks for sharing. Oh yes, in case I didn't answer before I am a
descendant of Jeremiah and Hannah through their son Mark. Mark Priest was my
ggrandfather.
