Since you are familiar with the Creed Ragsdale that lived in Lamar Co., TX, hope you may have some information on the Cornelius A. Ragsdale (23 yrs, b. KY)that was shown on the 1850 Census of Lamar Co, TX in Creed's household.
I have a C. A. Ragsdale, (33 yrs, b. TN)shown on the 1860 census of Morgan Co,AL, that had a son Cornelius Lee Ragsdale(my great-grandfather), b. 1863.The C.A. in AL was killed in the war, wife remarried, my ggrandfather ran away from home at a young age and left little to go on.
I can't think of why the Cornelius A. in TX would have moved to Al from TX in the 1850's, unless it was to find a wife.
If you can find anything that might relate to this, I would be very appreciative.
