I am looking for any information regarding one of my ancestors, Nancy Treadaway Pope.
The 1860 census for Marengo Co. AL, shows Nancy as being 37 years old, (b. 1823), and having been born in NC. She was married to William Pope, also from NC. He was a veteran of the Civil War. In 1860, they had 4 children:
Emeline Pope b. 1845 NC
William A. Pope b. 1849 NC
Joel F. Pope b. 1855 AL
John E. Pope b. 1858 AL
Joel F. Pope later married my gg-grandmother Clara Ann Rebecca Pruitt.
I am specifically interested in the names of Nancy's parents. I have had trouble locating her or her family in any NC records.
Any information you could share or suggestions you may have to give would be sincerely appreciated. I have hit a wall trying to tie her back to NC.
Thanks,
Lauren Barchi
