I am still trying to locate parents and siblings for my very elusive gggrandfather, Nicholas Long who was born abt. 1812 in Tennessee according to the 1850 & 1860 census.
In 1840 he was listed in Limestone County, Alabama:
1840 Federal Census

1850 he was listed in District 4, Limestone County, Alabama:

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING INFO CAME FROM JASON MARBUT, A WELL KNOWN RESEARCHER:
JASON BELIEVES THAT MY NICHOLAS LONG IS A SON OF AARON WASHINGTON LONG, AND BELIEVES HIS SIBLINGS WERE SARAH, MAHALA, ALFRED WASHINGTON, AND ELIZA MINERVA.
SARAH LONG MARRIED JOSEPH SANDY AND NAMED A DAUGHTER, MAHALA, WHO COULD BE NAMED FOR HER SISTER.
NICHOLAS LONG WHO MARRIED JANE BROWNING NAMED A SON ALFRED WASHINGTON LONG, PROBABLY FOR HIS BROTHER ALFRED WASHINGTON LONG.
ALFRED WASHINGTON LONG NAMED HIS OLDEST SON AARON ( AND THERE WAS AN AARON WHOM I THINK IS HIS FATHER ON THE CENSUS 1820 - 1840 ERA IN GILES COUNTY, TN. ).
MAHALA LONG THAT MARRIED PETERSON MCGILL ( ANOTHER CLOSE CONNECTION TO THE MARBUT'S ) NAMED A SON NICHOLAS MCGILL AND A SON AARON MCGILL. IN FACT AARON WAS THE SECOND SON, THE FIRST SON WAS NAMED ROBERT ( NO DOUBT FOR PETERSON MCGILL'S FATHER, ROBERT ).
NICHOLAS LONG ALSO NAMED A SON WILLIAM HENRY LONG... WELL, SARAH LONG WHO MARRIED JOSEPH SANDY ALSO NAMED A SON WILLIAM HENRY SANDY.
ELIZA MINERVA LONG NAMES A SON ALFRED WASHINGTON RIGGS. NICHOLAS LONG NAMED A DAUGHTER, MANERVA.
Hoping to make connections with anyone who is researching this family.
Thanks in advance
