CRITTENDEN/CHILDRESS--TN
I am looking for a possible connection between the CRITTENDEN and CHILDRESS families in Perry Co., TN.My great grandmother was Mahalia Crittenden CHILDRESS b. 1869.She married William Alexander SHELTON.Her parents were William A. CHILDRESS and Menerva Adaline RANDEL.CRITTENDEN seems to be an odd name for a girl.I have traced the RANDEL name and have found no connections between RANDEL AND CRITTENDEN.I can not find any information on William A. CHILDRESS.I am wondering if the name CRITTENDEN is from his side of the family.If any one has any CHILDRESS/CRITTENDEN connections please let me know.Thanks in advance for your help.
