      • 1  Grandpa Elisha Anderson in Montgomery Alabama father of Elijah
      Anderson - Elijah's mother was Lavinia Brack.

      Elijah's father appears to have been Elmore Anderson, son of Edmond and all three names received land grants in Georgia for their service in the American Revolution.  Some researchers believe they were born in Cherokee Nation North Carolina.

      Elijah was the father of Seaborn Montgomery Anderson who served in the Civil War.

        

      Seaborn was the father of Nancy Jane Anderson Bozeman and her mother was Lavinia Jane Sellers.  Seaborn's Aunt Elizabeth Anderson married Alfred Sellers who was an Uncle to Lavinia Jane.

      The Sellers were also of Cherokee Blood.

      Cecil Earl Fenn Carter married Alice Emma McClain, the great granddaughter of Nancy Jane Anderson Bozeman. Alice was born in Montgomery and Cecil was born to Anna Stone and William Franklin Fenn in Thompson Station, Bullock County Alabama.

      Alice was the daughter of Lorena Emma Bozeman and Charles Allen McClain.  Parents of Charles were Elizabeth Broadway and Josiah Marion McClain.
      Parents of Lorena were Alice Lorena Stephens ( daughter of Joe ) and John Thomas Bozeman.  

      Ironically the parents of Elizabeth Broadway McClain were Mary Susan Stephens and Abner Broadway.

      Lorena Bozeman McClain's son Joe married Georgia Lou Broadway.

      The Stephens descend from a John Stephens of North Carolina, another Colonial Soldier who married a full blood Cherokee.

      The Bozemans came from North Carolina 1700s history.

      Many census records and land documents are posted within my webpages, along with military records.


      Many of these families had settled in the Montgomery County area, some along the Meriweather Trail in Dublin and Ramer, Pine Level, some in Hope Hull. Pike County, the town of Troy, was within a few miles and some were found there in early census records.  There was a train station in Ramer and one in downtown Montgomery by the river.
