• Notes

  Sandra, I have come across some information recently that leads me to believe that John Stafford's wife Rhoda may have been Rhoda Travis, daughter of Simeon Travis (born January 17, 1770 in Beaufort County, NC (SC?) and Mary Ann Stafford (born May 22, 1774 in Effingham County, GA). Rhoda Travis was born August 20, 1796 and she was probably a cousin to her husband John. Her mother Mary Ann Stafford was the sister of Abraham Stafford, whom I am researching, and I know that Mary Ann and Simeon came to Mississippi about the same time as Abraham did. Abraham was living in Greene County, MS in 1820 at the same time John and Rhoda Stafford were, and I have long assumed a relationship between these families, though I don't know it for sure. The book "Who Married Whom in Green County, MS" says that John's wife Rhoda was born in 1796--same year as Rhoda Travis. What do you think? Grace W. Stafford
