    I am seeking information on the parents of my gg-grandfather Pleasant CRENSHAW, born SC 1813 or 1815. His 1st wife Elizabeth was born about 1810 in GA. Because of the naming of the children I suspect Elizabeth maiden name or Pleasant's mother's maiden name to be DARVEL. I am also suspect of the names William, James, Anel, & Pleasant as possible fathers. Pleasant CRENSHAW had migrated to Neshoba County, MS by 1843, when his oldest child was born. I suspect that he was living in Alabama with relatives in 1840. I believe that he may be associated in some way with either the HOUSTON, GULLY, or CALCOAT families.

McHenry when Frances Scott Key wrote the Star Spangled Banner while Armistead was flying old glory during the battle with the British. To get to the bottom of my story: I am trying to find out who Captain William's father is. They came from North Carolina, but the Captain's father supposedly died when he was a little boy and lived in North Carolina. Anything that you can do to help me with this project would be greatly appreciatead. Thanks!

They had at least one sister .She was named Margaret b1805.All the children were born in Georgia.
