RODDY, STOTTS
Looking for information on James H. RODDY, B 1816 in VA, and wife Sarah STOTTS, B 1824, Warren Co., TN. The family was listed on the 1870 Census of Franklin Co., TN. Cannot find any other information on them. We believe DOD for James is Nov. 1, 1893 and Sarah’s is Mar 31, 1891. They had three boys, Andrew Jackson “Taylor,” William Josephus and Robert “Bob”. We know William J. went to Craighead Co. AR and Andrew Jackson went to Ada, OK. Trying to determine if James and Sarah died in Franklin Co. and if so, where are they buried? Thanks for any help you can send.
