I'm looking for information about Elizabeth Hendrix/Hendricks - she was born in 1781 in the Pendleton District area of South Carolina to James Hendrix & Frances Lea Hendrix. She married a man by the last name of Harris in South Carolina and had two daughters. One daughter was Jane Harris, born 1814 in South Carolina; she married James Brown in Blount County in 1837, and died there in 1903. They had two children - Washington Brown & Elizabeth Harris Hendricks, wife of Samuel Hendricks. The other daughter was Lucretia Harris, born 1812 in South Carolina; she married Joshua Ratliff in Blount County in 1841 and died before 1856. They had 6 children - William, Phereby, John, Lugana (?), James (my great grandfather), & Nancy. I do not know when the family moved to Blount County - the first sighting of them is when daughter Jane married there in 1837. In the 1840 census, it appears that Elizabeth and Lucretia were living with Jane and James Brown. Does anyone have any information on Elizabeth Hendrix's husband? Carol
