William H. (Samuel Odom, Henry Sion Odom) Marlboro, Chesterfield, SC Records
I’m researching the ancestry of a William Herbert Odom (1831-1865) who was born in South Carolina (probably Marlboro County) and is believed to have died in a Union Army prison camp in Maryland.William, along with his wife Emily (Sings)Odom, were recorded in the 1860 Anson County, North Carolina census.I believe the same William was recorded in the 1850 Marlboro County, South Carolina census as the 18 year old son of Samuel and Lucy Odom.
I’ve run across at least one reference or family tree on the Web that suggest William was the son of Samuel Odom and Lucy Stubbs, and several family trees that have Samuel Odom as the son of Henry Sion Odom and Martha Snead. It appears, from census records that Samuel eventually moved to Chesterfield County, South Carolina, just across the border from Anson County, NC. Unfortunately, none of the WorldConnect trees or other posted trees provide any citations to sources.
I understand that a lady by the name of Helen Odom Harrell has published a book of research notes on Odom/Odum records abstracts, and other references she has run across while doing research in North and South Carolina. Please send me an e-mail if you know of a copy of the book available for purchase or if you can cite references in the book that pertain to the Odom line I'm researching.
Again, I'm hoping to prove, or disprove, the relationship between William Herbert Odom, Samuel Odom, and Henry Sion Odom.Thanks for any sources such as marriage, wills, administration records or any other records you can cite.
Thanks,
