Elijah and Nancy are married to each other. Nancy's maiden name is Cruse or Cruze. They were married in Blount Co., TN on 4 Jan 1847. Margaret is their daughter. They had another daughter named Mary. They don't show up again until 1870 where we find Elijah married to another woman, Mary Ann Smith, living in Bradley Co., TN. As for Millia she doesn't seem to be a daughter of William and Jane. She was born in Surry Co., NC, married Eli W. Combs in Surry Co., and died in Surry Co. Can you provide proof for Millia?
