Confused about spellings as they seem to change from place to place, so will look at all of them. Trying to connect my ancestor, Crawford Odam to relatives before l833. Born, TN l805. Died Putnam Co., MO l898. Spent some of his years in Hardin and Shelby Co, IL. Possibilities- a brother Cleyburn or Claiborne, a mother, an Edwards, born in SC., A maternal grandmother with maiden name of Bass. He married Sarah Womack. Sons: Moses, Dempsey, William, Jacob and Crawford. Daughter: Mary Jane, Catherine, and Martha Bass. Have family info after Crawford. Will appreciate any info. Judy

Re: Odam, Odem, Odom, Odum
The most common spelling is the original Odom. Crawford Odam a son of Hardy Odom b.abt 1780 in Georgia, but is likely descended from the North Carolina Odoms. Children of Hardy are:Lunceford Odam b. abt 1800, Crawford Odam b. abt 1805, Eveline Odam b. abt 1808, Claiborne Odam b. abt 1810, and Lurana Odam b. abt 1812.

Re: Odam, Odem, Odom, Odum
This correlates to my facts,but never have been able to establish the Georgia location. Why is it you believe descended from North Carolina. Who do you have as Hardy Odam's spouse. She was a female. Have more information that you may need but willing to look at what you have and will share what I have. Judy
