CALVIN ELLEDGE

by

 
I strongly suspect CALVIN ELLEDGE was the son of Joseph and Malinda Elledge who moved (before 1830) from Warren Co, TN (from area which became Cannon Co, TN in 1836) to Jackson County, AL. Joseph Elledge died in 1848 and Malinda died in 1851, according to Friendship Baptist Church minutes.
According to the 1840 Jackson Co, AL census, Joseph and Malinda Elledge had 4 or possibly 5 sons and possibly 2 daughters. Two sons (Leander and Alvey Elledge) moved to Madison Co, AL, after their parents' death.
Joseph Elledge was the son of Whitefield and Rachel Elledge, Sr. who married on Oct 29, 1792,in Wilkes Co, NC, and moved to Kentucky shortly after their marriage.
Whitefield and Rachel Elledge, Sr. are also the parents of my ancestress, Jane (Jenny) Elledge who marrried James Campbell circa 1812-1813 in Warren Co, TN, and moved to Jackson Co, AL, in the early 1820s with the Elledge clan.
Whitefield Elledge, Sr. was the son of Isaac and Jenny (Linn) Elledge who lived in Wilkes Co, NC, before they migrated to Kentucky. Isaac Elledge was the son of old Joseph Elledge and was born in Maryland. Old Joseph Elledge moved his family from Maryland to Wilkes Co, NC, and he died there in 1797.
