Samuel Studdard and a number of other families left South Carolina Oct 1849 and arrived near Athens Mississippi (Monroe Co) at the end of Oct of 1849. There were from what I can tell no Pope families on that trip. I highly suspect that Thomas died prior to 1850 and most likely in Laurens SC and Elender came to Mississippi after his death with her family to be near her brother Samuel. I have not been able to find Elender's burial place but there are a number of stones in New Prospect cemetery that are worn.I also went through a number of other cemeteries in Monroe Co but could not find her. Here is a list from an on line search http://cemeterieshillcountry.blogspot.com/2009/02/new-prospect-cemetery.htmlhttp://cemeterieshillcountry.blogspot.com/2009/02/new-prospect-cemetery.html
