Wilma, those Elmores used the same name so many times that it is hard to keep up with which one is which.I am sure my ancesters were not the same George Washington And John Allen Elmore you mention but I bet they were related.
My gggg grandfather was George Elmore b in NC 1750.He moved to Adair County, KY shortly after 1800.He had a number of sons but two of them were Elijah and Elisha Elmore.Elijah b in NC abt 1777 was my ggg grandfather. One of his sons was named George Washington Elmore b in NC abt 1798.This George Washinton Elmore was my gg grandfather.He had two sons, both born in White County, TN.One was named George Washington Elmore b 1829 and the other John Allen Elmore b 1833.This John Allen Elmore was my great grandfather and remained in TN.
Elijah Elmore Settled in White County, TN and Elisha Elmore settled in the adjoining Cumberland County,TN. Both of them seemed to use the same names for many of their sons.Have you checked the Elisha Elmore that settled in Cumberland Co, TN to see if he is the ancester of your George Washington Elmore and John Allen Elmore?
