Surnames: Neal, Scott, George
I am researching Louisa Ann Neal, born 6/27/1832 in TN, to I BELIEVE Alfred and Elizabeth Polk Neal, who were the only Neal family living in Shelby Co. TN in 1850. Louisa married Edward T. Scott around 1858 in Shelby County. They had 12 children and later lived in Tipton Co. TN until their deaths. Louisa died 3/13/1892 and is buried in Shelby Co. TN with Ed. However, 1860 and 1870 census records show Louisa Neal (3 years younger than mine) living with Alfred in Yell Co. AR and other researchers say she died there in either 1853 or 1877, but I haven't seen any sources for those dates. Ed Scott's sister married William H. Neal, who I believe to be Louisa's brother and the son of Alfred and Elizabeth. Also, Louisa's brother James Neal married Martha Louisa George. Can anyone tell me if I have these Louisas mixed up, or if my Louisa is someone else's daughter? I am totally stumped! I have VERY extensive records to prove Louisa and Ed were married and lived in West TN and I have seen the headstone with their names together on it, so I know she's here, I just can't prove where she's from...please help! Thanks!
