Illinois Slocumb Family
I am searching for information on a SLOCUMB family that was in Henderson/Union county, KY by 1800-1810.This family was in Wayne/White counties of Illinois by 1816-1818.The man's name was Samuel and according to the Elihu S. book, he was married to a Mary Ann BECK, supposed daughter of John and Elizabeth BECK, and had around 10 children.Of these children, Elizabeth md Dempsey HOOPER, Susannah md Samuel HOOPER, and John Charles md Elima HOOPER (CYPERT).The HOOPERs are children of James HOOPER who died in Henderson/Union county, KY in 1813.Also, David Dunn SLOCUMB(brother to the above SLOCUMBs) md Cynthia (MERRITT) HOOPER, widow of Clarinden HOOPER, brother to the above. Now that you are confused, can you help?The Elihu S. books, if I remember correctly from 20 years back, also gives another Samuel SLOCUMB being married to a Mary Ann BECK.So unless you can help me straighten this out I guess I'll just stay muddled!Thanks for your help in this matter.
