Searching for information on John S. Lyda, b. 1812-13, North Carolina. Have Ancestry Entry that states, John S. Lyda, b. 1813, married Catherine Ledbetter, abt. 1838-42 and names his parents as Jacob Lyda and Sarah Ann Wilkerson.

Catherine was the daughter of Walton (George) Ledbetter and Sarah "Sally" Goodbread.

Found John Lyda in the 1860 Census of Chattooga, GA, age 48, widowed with 8 children aged 24 to 1 year. In 1870, he is 58, married to Margaret, age 53, born GA. In 1880, John again is widowed at age 68 and living with adult children, Mary, Lula and Benjamin.

Seeking to establish confirmation on John's parents and first wife, Catherine Ledbetter and perhaps more informaton on his second wife.
