Looking for names/dates of children of William M. Crawford (b. 10 Jan. 1821 in Tennessee; d. 29 Sept. 1885 in Texas) and Sarah Jane Hannah (b. 4 Dec. 1828 in Arkansas; d. 8 Dec. 1874 in Alabama).
I only know of one son for them: James Monroe Crawford (b. 30 May 1850 in Arkansas). Sarah died in Alabama in 1874, but I don't know exactly where. I also don't know when they moved to Alabama. Could they be somewhere on an 1870 census? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Looking for information on a John Bell. His daughter Martha Jane Bell was born 4 May 1824 in Alabama. I understand he had 13 children, but most died early. Apparently John along with daughter Martha and son John Jr moved to Brown County, Illinois. Martha married Jeremiah Sarratt Mar 1843.
