Silas Odom, born between 1780 and 1790,is listed as a Private in the War of 1812, in Burke County, Georgia rosters.

On 25 Nov 1817, Silas Odom purchased land [part of tracts originally granted to Patrick Butler and William Boyet] from Stephen Griffin, with witnesses being Aaron Penwell and Jesse Kindred Griffin.

In 1820 census, Barnwell County, SC, Silas Odom was age 26/45.He had two males under age 10.

In 1830 census, Barnwell County, SC, Silas was age 40/50.He had two males 10/15, three males age 5/10, and two males under age 5, for a gain of 5 additional males in the ten-year period.

I find no further mention of Silas, his wife, or his children.Any info re descendants, parents or origin of Silas will be appreciated.
