In memory of my Dad, Duell Franklin 'Frank' Beard who passed away 27 July 2009 in Ogden, Weber County, Utah. He loved his family and he also loved to do family history. I am sure going to miss you Daddy, love you always and forever. Also to my Aunt Helen, Daddy's sister (and other mother) who followed him just a month later, she missed her Toggy Boy...

  • ID: I174
  • Name: James D. ELDER
  • Surname: Elder
  • Given Name: James D.
  • Sex: M
  • Birth: 1815 in , Lincoln, Kentucky, USA
  • Death: 20 Nov 1886 in Wellsville, Montgomery, Missouri, USA
  • _UID: 91EB5DDBDED3214F9FFEB5AD619A58052C24
  • Note:
    NOTES: According to J. B. Hitt at jbhitt@att.net James Dickey Elder did marry and had eight children. If James Dickey Elder did marry then the following census records are him and his wife and children. However, this James D. Elder is never listed as a minister in the occupation field in the census records. So I (Vickie Beard Thompson) am leaning towards the fact that James D. Elder and James Dickey Elder are two different people and that only James Dickey Elder is related to me and not James D. Elder. From what I have found the Elder family in Lincoln County, Kentucky is not related to my Elder line of Livingston and Crittenden Counties in Kentucky. I am beginning to think that this Elder family is the correct line of James D. Elder and if so he would not be related to me and my Elder line. For now I am leaning towards the fact that James Elder and Sarah Rusk were the parents of James D. Elder who married Margaret Dodd. Sarah Elder is widowed and has a son in the right age category in 1820, but none of the other Elder's in 1820 have a son in that age bracket. James D. Elder could be the young man in the 20 to 30 age bracket in 1840 living with his uncle Robert Elder in 1840 in Lincoln County, Kentucky. I will still need to do more checking to be sure though.

    CENSUS RECORDS: James D. Elder was 34 in 1850, born in Kentucky, occupation was a school teacher, living in District #1, Adair County, Kentucky.

    CENSUS RECORDS: Jas. D. Elder was 45 in 1860, born in Kentucky, occupation was a farmer, living in Oldham County, Kentucky.

    CENSUS RECORDS: James D. Elder was 58 in 1870, born in Kentucky, occupation was a farmer, living in La Grange, Oldham County, Kentucky.

    CENSUS RECORDS: Jas. D. Elder was 64 in 1880, born in Kentucky, occupation was a farmer, living in Wellsville, Montgomery County, Missouri. He states his father was born in South Carolina and his mother was born in North Carolina.
