Jess Wilson,
Thankyou for the reply.Do you know if Henry C. Begley and Elizabeth Roberts
had a son named Hiram(born 1824). My gggrandfather was Hiram Begley (born
1824 KY) married to Mary Ann Norris.They came out west and settled in
CA.Here is a list of their children:
1. Sara Elizabeth b. 23 Nov 1852,Uniontown,El Dorado,CA
2. Dicey Ann b. 10 Aug 1853,Uniontown,El Dorado,CA
3. Granville Henry b. 31 Jan 1856,El Dorado,CA
4. Olive Henrietta b. 31 Jan 1856,El Dorado,CA
5. Lucinda b. 03 May 1857,Covelo,Mendocino,CA
6. Eliza b.abt.1858,Uniontown,El Dorado,CA
7. Jonathan b.abt.1859,Uniontown,El Dorado,CA
8. Hiram b. 15 JUly 1872 Eden Valley,Mendocino,CA

I am trying to find out who Hiram's father was but have hit a dead end.
