Elijah Horne, SC 1774-1830+, possibly NC
Seeking information on Elijah Horne, born abt. 1774 and lived in Edgefield County, SC.He married Mary Elizabeth Booth in 1797, and they had the following children, all born in Edgefield County:Elizabeth b.27Feb1799, Absolum b.16Jun1801, Michael b.30Jul1803, Elijah b.03Apr1805, Pamelia b.04Feb1807, Samuel Savage b.20Feb1809, Sarah Ann b.06Mar1811, Mary E. b.26Feb1813, James Booth b.10Oct1815, and Maria b.21Feb1819. Absolum, his wife Permelia Johnson, and most of their children moved to Clark County, AR around 1858, but the rest of Elijah's children remained in Edgefield County. Absolum b.1801 is my gg-grandfather. Also Absolum's oldest son, Elijah Washington Horne (1829-1883), a Baptist Minister, remained in what was then Edgefield County, and is buried in Ridge Spring Cemetery. After several years of research, I believe the father Elijah Horne moved originally from Edgecombe County, NC, but have not been able to confirm this yet.
