Thanks Sandra.Yes, I looked and it doesn't appear that Elijah is his son:-(Though in the 1830 census it does havespaces listed for more children in the different age groups.Did he have slaves?Would they be included in the count?Or are their more children unaccounted for?In Elijah's age categorie there were 2 spaces yet, he had 3 sons in that age category-one might have been old enough to be gone though...
So hard to get beyond Elijah's generation with all my southern families-Harris, Smith and Davis.Such common names......oh well.BTW, his name is spelt Azel in the 1820 and 1830 Marion County censuses.I like the Azael spelling better though:-)
