Hi, I'm Clare. I am searching for other researchers of the Moses FINDLE/FENLEY/FENDLEY line. I believe that his son Henry is the father of my ggrandfather Benjamin. Henry married Mary BARRETT in 1811, she died in 1830, he married Winny Benefield. I cannot find the names of any of Henry and Mary's children. Desperate for help, I'm really getting a little tired of these Findley's. Lots of Findley's in Greenville(1810-1850) Pickens, Edgefield.

WARD, Daniel, born 1811. Suggestion has been made that he was a son of a Daniel and Nancy WARD of Edgefield County, SC. That Nancy is listed on the 1830 Census sof Dale County, AL. One male is living with her. Was this my Daniel? Living near her were John C. WARD and Athial (Thiol) WARD, also sons of Nancy WARD? In 1840 Daniel WARD is listed on Dale County, AL, census with elderly female living with him. Was this his mother Nancy? Daniel WARD married Sarah FORT in the area. Her familiy is well established. By 1855 they left AL for FL. I would like to hear from anyone with possible info on the parents of my Daniel WARD.
