Ethridge-Kemp Lines:
Rowan County North Carolina,Forks of The Yadkin. He was born about 1800 & She
was born 1808. Don't know Thomas's parent's names, but have been told by several
why she is not listed in this link on F. A. Kemp other than misinformation but according
to family this is her parents. After Thomas Died in Weakley County Tennessee in 1844.
She moved to Missouri somewhere between 1850 and 1860. She is listed in the Weakley
CountyCensus of 1850 but for some reason they have her listed as Elizabeth Edwards,
and also missed listing Emily Elvira as seen here. Here is what there marriage bond has to say.
