• Notes

  Elisha's parents may have been James and Sally Stafford. He was living with them in the 1850 census. Or James may have been his uncle. I'm looking for any information I can find on Elisha O. Stafford. Born around 1833-36. He was a Doctor/Physician throughout his life. I can find nothing on him previous of the 1860 census. He lived his life in TN then GA after the civil war in which he served as a Union private, and then got promoted as a lieutenant. I know one of his children was my gggrandmother Emmie/Emma Stafford. Any help on finding his parents or any info would be greatly appreciated. U.S. Civil War Soldiers, 1861-1865 U.S. Civil War Soldiers, 1861-1865 Name: Elisha O.
