I have this will of Mary's dated 18Oct1878. I'm trying to figure out
who she was married to. She leaves everything to her grandson Richard
L. Stewart. Does anyone know who the parents of Richard L. Stewart
were?
Also, there is a lot of confusion on my part and others as to the wives
of Robert R. Pendergast.
It is said by researchers that his first wife was Eliza Ann Redding and
yet in the Ripley marriages it list her as marrying Robert A. Pendergast
in 1825. Robert R. Pendergast married Lucinda Wetherbee Lacock in about
1830. On the 1850 Census it shows Lucinda alive and on the 1860 she is
not there but neither is the youngest children of theirs. On the 1860
census it list Robert R. Pendergast and an X where the wife should be
the William, Robert Jr, Hiram and Eliza. Now I think that Eliza was
Williams wife but next of the census is Wiliam and Eliza and their
children. This was all in Elrod.
Getting back to this confusion is the fact that some have Robert R.
Pendergast as marrying Elizabeth Adeline Brown in 1857. But this was
Robert's son not Robert R. They had children too and I would like to
know their names.
Any good Pendergasts researchers out there?
