Jackson Greer Claytor/Perisade Brown Claytor, KY & TN
My g-grandfather was Jackson Greer Claytor. He married my g-grandmother, Perisade Brown, in Cadiz, KY sometime around 1880. They had 6 or 7 children. Around 1896, Jackson deserted PeriSade and she had to place all of the children in an orphanage. I believe the orphanage was near Columbia, TN.
We have been told that Jackson Greer Claytor died around 1910 in either Alabama, Arkansas or Texas, but we haven't been able to find out where. We'll never know why he deserted his wife and children and Jackson Greer is definitely NOT my favorite ancestor, but I would like to know what happened to him. Did he re-marry, have more children or just drift?
If anyone has any information on him, even if it's not confirmed, please send it to me.
Thanks,
Barb Flores
