I am researching several families. Paternal(Beckner, Brooks, Davis, Kemp, Middleton). Maternal (Cloyd, Joliffe, McIlvaine, Ray, Stalcup). Almost all these families were early settlers in America mostly settling beween GA and DE. Later to TN and KY to s MO and then on to OK and TX. The exceptions would be the Kemps and Middletons who moved from GA across AL, MS LA and then on to TX. I am struggling to find the biological mother of Perlina Jane Cloyd (married William Riley Stalcup and buried at Whitesboro TX), born on April 8, 1830. I know she was the daughter of John William Cloyd. His wife Mary "Polly" O'Banion was born no earlier than 1816 and therefore couldn't be the mother of the older five children all born no later that 1833. Mary was definitely married to John William Cloyd and she and her family were well aquainted with these older children. Perlina's full siblings are Rachel, Elizabeth Ann, Thomas Jefferson and possibly Cynthia Caroline.
