Levi Merritt in NC and ALA
Does anyone know the father of Levi Merritt who is listed near the sons of Captain Robert Merritt(br.1725)on the 1790, 1800, 1810, and 1820 Census records for Sampson County/Duplin Counties?
He is also listed on many county records with Robert's sons, but I have not yet found him listed as one of their brothers. I have researched family group sheets on Captain Robert's descendents and his brothers with their descendents, but the name Levi does not appear on any of them.
His profile on the census records show that he might have been Robert's younger son who was too young to be a Revolutionary War soldier. I believe he is the father of my ancestor Levi who was born in 1795 in Sampson County, NC, and who migrated to Henry County, Alabama through Georgia and Florida with his brothers William, Daniel, and Jesse Merritt.
I hope this information can help someone, but I also hope someone can please help me prove my ancestry. I have numerous records on his descendentsand his brother's records that I could share.
Thanks so much for ANY information that could be helpful.
Brenda
