E. L. MORRIS and Nancy are listed in the 1860 Census for Washington Parish, Louisiana.
1860 CENSUS: Palestine PO, Washington Parish, LA; Series: M653, Roll: 426, Page: 819, Line 32, Family 373/364; E. L.

Sometime after 1860, Elkanah (E. L.) Morris died. By 1870, NANCY BROCK MORRIS had remarried. She became the 3rd wife of THOMAS JAMES MILLER.
Thomas James Miller 1st and second wives were sisters Marritty and Mattie Rea DILLON.

RAIFORM MILLER married ANGELINE BROCK,; Angeline was a daughter of James Brock & Elizabeth Purvis. Angeline is buried in the Thad Miller Cemetery
Warnerton , Washington Parish, Louisiana.
Her tombstone CONFIRMS that she is a daughter of James & Elizabeth BROCK.
TOMBSTONE: MILLER, ANGELINE BROCK, no dates, w/o RAFEFORD MILLER, d/o James and Elizabeth Purvis Brock
Raiford's father was Thompson Miller. Clara Ginn, wife of Thompson Miller, parents were Jeptha Ginn and Penina Magee.
The BROCK, MILLER, MORRIS, GINN and DILLON are all related.
Can someone close to this family confirm that ANGELINE BROCK, wife of Raiford Miller and NANCY BROCK wife of Elkanah MORRIS & Thomas James MILLER are SISTERS and daughters of James & Elizabeth BROCK.
