Biography
Edward Parnell Jr was born about 1760 in North Carolina. His parents are believed to be Edward Parnell and Emma (?). Geni profile linked below says parents are Thomas Parnell & Mary (?).
At some point in the 1770s or 1780s Edward married (?).
The 1790 US Census show Edward's name is the last one on the page, and the tick-marks likely indicate himself, his wife, 4 sons and 1 daughter.[1]
The 1800 US Census.[2]
The 1810 US Census.[3]
These marriage records from 1819 seems to show that Edward married again late in life.[4][5][6] Edward would be nearly 60 years old and new wife Sophia (Ness) about 70, but the sum of 500 pounds seems to be quite a steep price for a marriage license.
The 1820 US Census.[7] This record uses tick-marks that seem to indicate 1 "Free White Male" over 45 years old, 1 "Free White Female", that would account for Edward & Sophia, and 1 mark that represents a 16 to 18 year old male, presumably Ed's youngest son still at home.
The 1830 US Census shows that both Ed and Sophia are still alive at their advanced age, but no others in the home.[8]
