Hi Billie:
Look at the post on rootsweb by Tom Hoot which has the stuff I looked and he sort of stole. He said he would give me credit. Anyway one of the marriages of the girls is wrong as she is really the daughter of James B and she married a Lawrence and came to Texas with James B and his family.
Anyway in 1830 there was a Gilas Hilyard on the census. This is how it is transcribed. I just did a lot of looking one day and found the information and I told him it was not verified but it was my theory. Mom always said that there was a Silas Hilliard who was his father. She had the wrong one. I think that it is possible that the father of Silas was a Jesse or maybe a James. I found them in SC and I know there are others. I just don't have any means of researching SC beyond the internet and I also did not find much info on Louisiana on the net. Louisiana was still a territory at the time he was born and I'm not sure where the records are.
I also found a church record where James and Elizabeth might have gotten a letter of transfer after the 1860 census and gone to the county where A A was. Its been solong since I looked at this stuff I don't where I'm going to find it to send to you and see what you think.
Albert Allen married Mary Angela Roberts and I finally got a break on her mother's maiden name. It was Rogers. If you type -John "The Powder Maker" Rogers in Google you'll find info on my 5th grgrandfather and his wife and family. It is fascinating.
