Here is a brief pedigree of Adeline BLACK, my one BLACK name. I don't
have any of her ancestors or siblings. Please take a look at what I have
compiled. If you don't know my Adeline, maybe you'll find one of your
BLACK ancestors.

Adeline's family lived in Carroll Co. GA (1832), Randolph Co. (1840) and
Cherokee Co. (1850) AL and Cherokee Co. TX (1860).

Adeline BLACK (b. 1813-1815 GA) married Jeremiah MURPHY (b. 1807 GA) on
2-2-1832 in Carroll Co. GA.

Married in GA 1832 > moved to AL 1834 > moved to Texas 1854. Jeremiah
MURPHY was a bricklayer and his oldest son was a bricklayer. Adeline
BLACK was probably not from a farming family.

>From the 1820 Georgia census, the following could be the heads of
Adeline's family when she was a child:

1. David BLACK - Oliver TWP, Hall Co.: 010001-10101
2. Joseph BLACK - Hall Co.: 12001-2101
3. James BLACK - Monticello TWP, Irwin Co.: 510011-11011
4. John H. BLACK - Jackson Co.: 21011-1001
5. Robert BLACK - Louisville TWP, Jefferson Co.: 230201-24301
6. John BLACK - Schreven Co.: 001011-1111
7. Robert BLACK - Walton Co.: 31001-1001

The census, taken in the 27th District of Cherokee Co. AL on 11-13-1850
lists the following households.

Household #175: Family of Jeremiah MURPHY (43 GA) and Adeline BLACK (35
GA) with children Sarah (17 GA), James (16), Lucy (15), Mortimer (10),
Mary (8), Francis (6) and Julia (4).

Household #179: Family of Nathaniel BLACK (41 GA) and Rebecca
YARBOROUGH (40 SC), with daughter Lucinda (11 AL).

Household #183: Family of Mortimer BLACK (35 GA) and Minerva WHORTON
(25 AL), with children Lydia (3 AL) and James (8 mos. AL).

I am hoping these BLACKs living near Adeline are related to her. The
names Mortimer and James show up in households 175 and 183 and
Lucy/Lucinda is in households 175 and 179.
