Notes for Amanda E. Orren


In an 1850 Lawrence County , Mississippi Census microfilm, I found the following:

visit #142

ORREN, MARY---age 53---female---Farmer---Personal Estate Value=$800---Birth Arkansas

ROMALEY ORREN---age 26---male---birth, North Carolina
ROBERT ORREN---age 22---male---birth, North Carolina
AMANDA ORREN---age 21---female---birth, North Carolina
WILLIAM ORREN---age 18---male---birth, North Carolina


Therefore, if this is our Amanda Orren, married to David Ward, they had to have been married later in 1850 or later. Their son Pleas was born in 1857. So that would make better sense. Because in 1850 she was obviously still living with her widowed mother, Mary and her three brothers. Therefore, it is also more likely that Amanda and David Ward married in Mississippi.
