Answer 3

I am directly related to Miley Kidwell/Kidwill and William German. I am trying to confirm which Elijah Kidwill/Kidwell is her father. Because she says she was b. in SC, I'm assuming the one in the 1790 SC census is her father, but I find much more info on the Elijah Kidwell in NC....any help on this?
