Biography
Jefferson was born in 1817 in Alabama. His father was born in North Carolina and married in Tennessee. The specific date of birth "12 April" is given in LDS records. No primary source has been cited for that date.
Jefferson Stracener's first wife was Phebe Fletcher. The marriage license was "Issued on September 26, 1837" in St. Clair County, Alabama. No return date recorded. The entry is difficult to decipher and has been interpreted as "6" September. The "2" of the "26" has some stray ink, but appears similar to the clerk's other numeral 2's. [1]
Jefferson "Strasner" received a land patent on 20 Sep 1839, for 39 acres in the southern part of St Clair County, Alabama, map uploaded.[2]
Jefferson Stracener's second marriage was to Elizabeth A Patterson on April 26, 1859 in Alabama.[3] "Stracener has been heretofor married." But this was not stated for Elizabeth, for whom a prior marriage is suggested: Elizabeth A Biddle married Geoge W. Patterson on December 23, 1847 in Talladega, Alabama.[4] Elizabeth did not appear in the 1860 census, and there are no children younger than 4, the assumption being that Jefferson and Elizabeth had no children.
