I have seen the references to Anderson Bales marriage to an Ava/Ana Menifoe in various family trees posted in Ancestry.Does anyone have any documented evidence of this marriage?I have found a few death certificates of children of Anderson Bales and they show their mother as Ava Hickman.And I see Ava/Evvy Bales in censuses up thru 1870.
I've also seen in the censuses a totally different family with an Ava/Ana Bales who was the wife of William Bales, in same Knox/Sevier/Jefferson county area.One researcher says this Ava Bales is Ava CATES.In 1870 she is in Knox County as Ava M Bales.
I've found Knox County TN Marriage records with connections to MANIFOLD surname.Henry Manifold was bondsman for marriage of Asher Bales and Sally King in 1824.And Aaron Bales m. Else {Alice) Manifold in 1811, bondsman John Love.Is 'Menifoe' the same as 'Manifold'?
Really hope to get someone's source/documentation for themany references to the Ava Menifoe relationship with Anderson Bales, since, if it's correct, it has to fit in with the Ava Hickman evidence.
The Bales connection ties in with my Dykes and Hickman families.Also, some potential connections with Stephen Underdown and children of Mary Lewis Dykes. (She has several children after her husband's death and there is court case in 1842 Sevier County, TN re: her and Stephen Underdown.)
thanks!Would love to hear/share more info on these families.
