Searching for anyone who knows anything on my gg-grandfather, Absalom Infinger (1828 - 1904). I have pludered the Florida Archives and scoured the internet. I plan to make a tour of Alabama court houses someday (with small children, however, that seems to be a monumental feat). Please help if you can.
The facts I have found so far:
--Absalom Infinger & Francis Infinger (most likely the grandson of Conrad Cornelius) both purchased land in Dale County, Alabama 7/1/1841 (Range 25-E,Township 6-N, Sec. 12)
--Absolom Enfinger bought land in Clarke County 6/1/1860
--Absalom & Delilah Enfinger are listed on a Clarke County, AL Census in 1860.
--Absalom Infinger served in the 1st Florida Calvary during the war.
--Daniel Enfinger of Jackson County, Florida(most likely son of the ubiquitous Conrad Cornelius) named one of his sons Absalom Noah
--Both Absalom & Delilah are buried in the Enfinger plot at Westville Cemetery, Holmes County, Florida
-----"Absalam Infinger/ Born 1828/ Died Sept. 24, 1904"
-----"Delilah/ Wife of Absalom Infinger/ Born Sept. 8, 1837/ Died Dec. 24, 1897"
What I suppose from all this "circumstantial evidence" is that
Absalom is somehow related to all the other Orangeburgh district SC decendants.
Unfortunately, I cannot find the missing link! Any help would be (tremendously!) appreciated.
Children of Absalom & Delilah
--Mary Louise (1859-1911)m. James Eleazor Galloway, Sr.
--William Elburn (1866-1954) m. Mary Ann Sellers
--John (b. 1869)
--Dellie
My grandfather was Clarence Aulton Enfinger, son of William Elburn. He passed away when my father was only 11, so I have never met any of my Enfinger relatives. Would love to hear from you! :)Amy
