Parents of Dewitt Mangum, 1828-1865, Granville County, NC
We have not been able to confirm the parents of my husband's ancestor, Dewitt C. Mangum. Family records have his birth as July 5, 1828 and his death as August 26, 1865, in Granville County, NC. He was married to Mary Thomas Jenkins on November 18 1858 and their children were Charlie Goodman Mangum and Dora Melissa Mangum. We found him on someone's tree, but the ages of the parents did not fit our Dewitt. We would love to have some help on this.
