She was at home with family on the 1850 census of McDowell Co. N.C. One child, a son, George is not listed with them, so she may have been pregnant with him. She may have died in childbirth or shortly there after, because i do not find her with the family on the 1860 census. Her family apparently moved back and forth between McDowell and Mitchell counties, as i have found them on both. Any help in regard to her death and burial will be appreciated. Her husband, my gr-gr grandfather John Milton (Jackie ) McClellan died after 1900 and is buried in the Penley Cemetary, but i do not find her there. They were married in 1825 in Cabarrus Co. N.C.

I have some info, not a lot, but i will continue to search my records which are quite large and not in very good order right now. I moved and some of my records are still in file boxes, but if you would like to find a more complete documentation, i suggest you contact my cousin Joyce Penley Comer Burnette. She has done research for over 20 years. She will be able to tell you exactly where all the Civil War soldiers in our family are buried, where they served, etc. She is a PENLEY by birth. and lives in N.C. joyceburnette33@bellsouth.net JAMES RANSOM PENLEY b: 1847 Mitchell Co. N.C. son of ELIJAH PENLEY. married 1865 to MARY J. LACKEY d: 03 May 1929 at age 86 years 1 month b: Ashville North Carolina. You are correct, my great grand father BENJAMIN FRANKLIN FREEMAN was enlisted in Co. C 2nd. North Carolina Infantry.Rank-Private but we understood that by the near end of the war they had been incorporated in to the 58th. BENJAMIN F.

Cuba, Illinois-----Fulton County Note: I have his death certificate which states-death caused by shock after a fall on wet floor that broke his hip.He was living at the time with his son John Freeman and daughter in law Ruhamey.At some point in time Ruhamey applied for Benjamins , soldier's pension from N.C. and he recieved a grand 6 dollars a month until the time of his demise. (I have a photo of his head stone ) His grave is well kept, and marked with a special bronze plaque on the headstone top, placed there by the local veterans association. If you have anything on JOHN MCCLELLAN of Grassy Creek N.C., would you please forward it to me. I believe he was a soldier but i cant find him on any of the rolls of soldiers. Thank you. Also, here is another website that has a wealth of information. www.pendleyusa.com Most of the names entered there are mine and Joyce's family member's.
