Seeking out descendants of George Washington Twyford (1824-1864) and his wife, Sophronia Parmley. They lived in Wayne County, Kentucky, and had two daughters:

Margaret Belle Twyford (born 1858) married John Parmley. They lived in Jackson County, Arkansas in 1900 and 1910.

Mary C. Twyford (born 1860) married Thomas J. Branscum. They lived in Shannon County, Missouri, in 1900, and shortly thereafter in Carroll County, Arkansas.

George Washington Twyford was a Confederate cavalryman under General John Hunt Morgan. He was captured and imprisoned at Camp Douglas in Chicago, Illinois, where he died.

The relative I am researching is Hannah P Long. I believe Hannah married Christopher Twyford. Hannah is the daughter of Benjamin and Elizabeth Long of Clay County Illinois. She was the oldest of five children (that I know of) : Hannah, Jane, charles, susan, and john. There is a record in the Illinois online marriage index of Christopher twyford and Parmela Long. Any information on this family would be much appreciated.
