Debbie My gg grandparents were Elijah and Martha Merritt.They moved from Albermarle Sound NC to Thomasville, Ga. I don't know the year but John William was born just outside of Thomasville Feb 3rd, 1851, he died Dec 29 1884.He married Mary Ellen Oder.She was born July 26th, 1854 and died Feb 1st 1939. They had the following children;Talbert Lee Merritt, Thomas Rhett Merritt who moved to Jacksonville, Fl and had a produce business there. Does any of this sound familiar?Any help you can give would be appreciated.
