I am searching for an Unknown Pryor b. abt 1810-1820, married toElizabeth ? , possibly lived in Marion County, TN. They had a childnames Clerind B. Pryor b. abt. 1856 in TN, married William Loftis. In the 1880 Census Clerind and William Loftis lived in Jackson Co.,TN and Elizabeth Pryor was listed as living with them, so I assumeher husband was deceased.William Loftis and Clerind Pryor had 5 children; Pearlie, Elizabeth,Minerva, William and Mary Lou Loftis (my grandmother) b. 1/1/1880 m.Asberry Stewart in TN. As it turns out Asberry Stewart had a brothernamed Marion Franklin Stewart. In researching Marion Stewart I finda record of his name in the TN Death Index in Marion County in 1916Record #203.This is a shot in the dark in trying to locate my Unknown Pryor, butyou never know. I also noticed a listing of Mathew Pryor, under FirstSettlers of Marion County, TN. Do you have info on Mathew?
