Subject: [TNMARSHA] MARY PHIFER, DAU OF JONAH/JONAH PHIFER OF MARSHALL CO., TN.

I am searching for info on a Mary Phifer born circa 1838 in Tennessee, maybe Marshall Co. From the 1880 Marshall Co., TN. census (District 14) I have found the following household:

Jonas Phifer age 73 born North Carolina
Jane Phifer age 68 TN.-wife
Mary Phifer-age 42 TN.-daughter
Alford L. Phifer- age 25-TN.-son
Adaline Phifer-age 20 TN.- daughter

I think it was on FamilySearch, I found the following:

Jonah Phifer, son of Peter Phifer and Margaret Lawson, born Nov. 28, 1808, died Feb. 18, 1889 married Jincy McGreggor on Sept 17, 1832 in Maury Co., TN.

Would this Jonah Phifer be the same as Jonas Phifer in the 1880 Marshall Co., TN. census.

Does anyone have information on this family--trying to find info on Mary Phifer, daughter of Jonas. She married my 2nd great grandfather, John C. Hedgecoth, in 1884 in Marshall Co., TN.
