Glenda,
Thanks for the reply. There are some similar naming patterns, but I am unable to make a connection. I searched through the name or initials of all the grandchildren looking for a Patrick. The only families I have found in Tallapoosa County were John’s Family and a few of his wife’s Luker family. John’s daughter Sarah married a William Character in Tallapoosa County before they moved to Clay (Randolph Countyy. Our Ephraim enlisted for service in the CSA at about the age of twenty and was killed in action around Richmond on 27 June 1862. Does not appear that he was married.
I have saved you information for future reference or find. Thanks again, Kelvin Moore
