You say 'the only children I have born to John and Mary are Eliza and John Lindsey'.
From the Felts Bible in the Claiborn Howard Book by Jerry Cook I count these:
1.Joel b. Sept 11, 1790
2.Martha b Mar 4, 1792
3.Wilie b. Sept 10, 1795 d. June 27, 1860
Ma Matilda ?Sept 17,
4.Elizabeth b. Apr 28, 1802-d. Oct 22, 1856 ma. ----Bohans
5.Massy b. Feb 23, 1804-d. Dec 3, 1829 unmarried
6.John Lindsey b. May 3, 1807-d. June 10, 1851
7.Rebecca b. May 23, 1810-d.Aug 12, 1869 ma John B. Madison
(Rebecca & John Madison-GG grandparents of my husband)
8.Harrison Carmichael b. July 30, 1813-d. Feb 8, 1880
ma Sarah Tulburt Mar 25, 1837
I found no Eliza as a son.There was a listing of the marriage for Elza Felts and Nancy Tulburt of June 21, 1835 and elsewhere in the book them and their children but no mention of who Elza belonged to.
I too would like to see the original of this Felts Bible as the names are surely not in the order they must have been recorded and I believe some of information of who married who and who their parents were was probably added and noted by Jerry as he worked on the families listed elsewhere in his book with their children.
Since Aaron Jr married Rebecca Reynolds and Elza and Nancy named one of their sons Elisha Reynolds I am beginning to think this Elza was a son of Aaron Jr and the son was given part of his mother's name.Proof of this would be nice!
Thanks for your time.
Marie
