Nelson/Nelson Pocahontas Word
I am trying to find the parents of Nelson Word not Nelson Pocahontas Word.Apparently these are two different men born nearly the same time.My Nelson Word was born about 1807/08 in TN, Ky or even SC.He married Margaret Tidwell, born abt. 1807.My g-grandfaher, Hugh Henry Word, was born 2/17/1831 in Alabama.I don't know if Nelson was his first name or if he went by a middle name.I can't seem to get any information about him.I have Nelson Pocahontas born Dec 1809 and married a Margaret Burch in July 1834.My Nelson Word was listed in the 1850, Blount Co., AL census with his family of nine children.I would appreciate any info anyone has about the parents of my Nelson Word.Thanks.
