Does anyone have any information about the marriage of Quinby MUSGRAVE and Elizabeth NELSON in Greene Co., IL on Aug 11, 1831? I checked the 1830 Greene Co. census and there were 2 MUSGRAVES living there. James was in his 30's and his oldest son was 10-15 years old so I don't think the marriage could have been for the son (too young). The other MUSGRAVE was Burrell, in his 20's and obviously just married himself. So who was Quinby?
My ggg-grandfather was Quimby MUSGRAVE, born about 1802 in Tennessee who eventually moved to Mississippi then Sevier Co., Arkansas. His oldest son, John Anderson MUSGRAVE (my gg-grandfather), was born about 1833. I do not know the name of Quimby's first wife and she must have died before 1849 when Quimby remarried in Arkansas. The marriage date in Greene Co., IL would be about right for my Quimby's marriage. Any information would be greatly appreciated!!
