in the 1870s? He lived in Izard County from the end of the Civil War until approximately
1880, when he moved to Navarro County, TX. His wife was Mary Ann Davis. Please assist me

CHURCHILL, COPELAND
Name: Barbara Jean Copeland Aldridge, aldridge73s@sprintmail.com
3000 Magnolia Lane
Bedford, TX 76021
Query: CHURCHILL-Looking for info on when and by what route the Churchills came to Izard
county. In the 1850 census, there are only two CHURCHILL families: one (Richwoods twp)is
the family of Joseph D, 53, and Lucretia, 47, with children John S., 21, James J., 20,
Levina, 17, Jane 14, Lucy, 12, Wiliam 10, Dempsey W., 8, Joseph A, 4. The children were
born in AR; Joseph was born in New Jersey and Lucretia in VA. Joseph and Lucretia's eldest
son, John, appears in the 1860 with his wife Susan J. (b. in IL) and children George and
Charity (both 6), Sarah E, 4, and Louiza, 1 in Union twp, Benbrook Mills. This family was
not found in the 1870 census. Since John S. Churchill was born in AR in about 1829, this
would indicate that Joseph Churchill came from NJ prior to 1829. Louiza (or Luiza)
Churchill, John and Susan's youngest, married Marcus Dee Lafayette COPELAND about 1873-77.
Would appreciate hearing from anyone with CHURCHILL info that may relate to my kin.
