HARRIS, NANNEY, RAY posted by John Pluge on Monday, January 7, 2008

I am searching for the parents and any siblings of my gg grandfather, Andrew T. (or J.?) Nanney. He reported being born in TN and being 27 in the 1850 Dallas Co., TX census. He married Susanna "Susan" Ray in Macoupin Co. 13 Ja 1842. She was born in IL on 6 Ap 1825, the daughter of Robert Ray (b. 1805 NC) and Mary Denton Ray (b. 1799 KY). They married 5 Ap 1823 in Madison Co., IL. Andrew & Susan had 2 sons in IL and 3 more children after migrating to TX in 1847. Her parents also migrated to TX with them. Andrew & Susan both died during the 1850s, leaving 4 of their children to the care of Robert & Mary by 1860. Benjamin W. Nanney (b. 18 N 1824 White Co., TN) married Amanda Harris in Macoupin Co. on 5 D 1843. He reportedly died Mr 1850. He was from a well documented family that was in TN from the early 1820s until at least the mid 1830s. His parents, William Nanney and Ruth Harris, and siblings were in Fayette Co., IL by at least 1837 until the 1850s. Many of her Harris relatives are documented in Macoupin Co. during the 1840s. This is the only early Illinois Nanney family that I have been able to locate. I believe that my first mentioned relative must have been somehow linked to this family. I would appreciate any supporting or contradicting data.
