John H. Worthy of Mississippi
I am seeking information on the family of John H. Worthy and wife Edie/Eda Jane Loflin Worthy. John was the son of William and Fatha? Worthy of Covington County Mississippi. Edie Jane was the daughter of Thomas and Jane Loflin also of Covington Co., MS.
John and wife had daughter Elnora(Nora)Worthy McQueen, and maybe two more daughters. John and Edie left Covington County sometime after 1880 for the Natchez area in Adams Co., MS. possibly worked in the Cotton Mills there. Edie died at Natchez July 18th, 1889 and her body was sent to be buried at Brandon. Her daughter Rosa died as an infant possibly in Natchez in 1886.
I believe my GGGrandmother, Jane Farnham was living with John and family in Gloster, Ms in Amite County at her death in 1896.I am trying to find out when John died and where he is buried. His daughter Nora married a McQueen in Covington County, so maybe the family returned here.
Any information is appreciated.
