REVELS in Rowan County NC
I am searching for reccords of Absalom REVELS and Frederick Ernest MILLER in Rowan County, NC.The records I have discovered are:
Absalom Revels:Father James Revels, b. 1795; mother Janet
(From File of Rene Rylander)
1850 Fayettesville Dist. Cumberland County, NC. p. 24:
Absalom Revels, 26 MM Blacksmith b. NC
Absalom W. Revels, 72 U.S. Col'd Infantry
United States Colored Troops, Enlist. Mar 8, 1865
Absalom Revels - Death 1886, Salisbury, Rowan County NC, relative: Frederick Ernest Miller.(Source: LDS Index)
My ancestor, ROWAN REVELS, married TONY MILLER from Rowan County.I have examined Rowan County's tax lists for the relevant years.I have visited the research department in Rowan County without finding any reference to Tony Miller, his wife Rowan, Absalom Revels or Frederick Ernest Miller (although there are several Frederick Millers).I am trying to find records regarding Absalom and his connection with the Millers because Frederick is listed as a "relative" on Absalom's death notation.I would appreciate any thoughts or suggestions on other avenues to explore.Thanks in advance.
