• Notes

  !NOTES:Marty Grant's 4th Great Grand Aunt, by marriage.; !REFERENCE: http://www.martygrant.com/ http://www.martygrant.com/genealogy/lane/ !NOTES:No clues as to Elizabeth's maiden name.; !NOTES:Special thanks to David Rankin for sharing information on this family in Texas. He had found widow Elizabeth there, and he and I were able to prove (more or less) that widow Elizabeth Lane of Fayette Co., TX was the widow of Stephen C. Lane. - The major proof is circumstantial, but very strong: 1. Elizabeth's children were born in SC and AL which matches Stephen's known residences at the times of their births. 2. George married in Montgomery and was living in Fayette in 1850 two houses from his mother. 3. George named a son "Stephen". 4. After George's death, his wife and family returned to Montgomery Co., AL where the Lanes had been before. 5. Martha Lane m. Anthony Pouncey in 1830 Montgomery Co., AL. In 1850 Frank Pouncy, 10, was with Elizabeth in TX. Anthony and Martha no where to be found. Probably dead. * All of the above makes it pretty clear that widow Elizabeth was indeed Stephen's wife, but as far as I know no primary source document has been found that proves it 100%.; !CENSUS:1820 Barnwell Dist., SC p. 15 Stephen C.
