LOOKING FOR HIS PARENTS. HE WAS BORN IN 1810 AROUND JOHNSTON COUNTY, NC DIED 12/21/1889. THE MAINLY LIVED IN SUMTERVILLE ALABAMA. THEY HAD 12 CHILDREN: WILLIAM BRYANT, REBECCA ANN, MARTHA, JAMES THOMAS, MARY UNY, SARAH ELIZABETH, JOSEPH HENRY, GEORGE AUGUSTAS, CHERRY LANE, ELIAS HENRY, RIXIE ELLA, EDWARD HOWARD. I HAVE ALL KINDS OF INFORMATION ON ELIAS AND RIXIE, JUST LOOKING FOR HIS PARENTS OR SIBLINGS.

I do not know this Elias, but I find an Elias Wren, b. 1755 to Joseph and Sarah Wren in Albemarle Parish VA. There may be a relationship.

My search is for Shadrach(k) Wren, b. about 1760, possible VA or NC, and is in the 1790 census of Rutherford Co. NC.

Best wishes in your search.
