Levi PRESLEY / PRESLAR
Posted by: Dan Franklin (ID *****2708) Date: January 01, 2008 at 10:42:52

Looking for information on Levi PRESLAR / PRESLEY listed in the 1840 census of Anson Co, NC on SHT 48. Who is his father? What happened to him after 1840 and who are his children? He would have been born between 1810 and 1820. From the 1830 and 1840 censuses, it appears that his father could be Stephen PRESLAR.

There are two Levi PRESLARs. The one on SHT 63 was born around 1800 and is evidently the same as the Levi PRESLEY in the 1850 census of Jackson Co, TN. He is also listed in the 1830 census of Anson Co, NC.

The reason why I am interested in the Levi PRESLARs / PRESLEYs listed in Anson Co, NC is that I am looking for the father of Levi PRESSLEY b. 1832 either GA or NC. The name Levi appears and the NC references seem to point back to this PRESLAR family in Anson Co, NC.

The first record I have of my Levi PRESSLEY is his marriage to Margaret Emily RENFRO on 26 Jun 1859, Rankin Co, MS. I have not been able to locate him in the 1850 census. Although the 1860 and 1870 censuses give his place of birth as GA, the 1870 census and most of the census records of his children indicate he was born in NC.

It is clear that he is not a son of Levi PRESLAR, who was born around 1800; but I have not ruled out the other Levi b. 1810/1820.

It looks likely that my Levi PRESSLEY could be connected with the Anson Co, NC PRESLAR / PRESLEY family, but I am not positive how.
