      David Alford (M)
      b. 1785, d. 1860, #3
      Pop-up Pedigree

           David Alford was born in 1785 at VA. He was the son of Robert Alford and Susanna ______. David Alford married Mary Ann "Polly" Orrick circa 1808 at Morgan County, AL. David Alford appeared as head of household in the census enumerated 1811 at Madison County, AL. Information was found on Tax List.
           David served in two separate armed conflicts during the time of the War of 1812. He served from November 5, 1813 until December 20, 1813 with Captain James Burleson's Company of Mounted Infantry (Gunmen), Madison County, Mississippi Territory Militia. This unit, a part of the 7th Regiment of Mississippi Militia (Perkin's Battalion), was ordered into service for the defense of the frontiers of Madison County, Mississippi Territory to repel an invasion of hostile Creek Indians. The commanding officer was Lt. Colonel Peter Perkins. David was listed as a Sergeant in this unit. For this service he was paid a total of $31.60 (which included $14.40 for the hire of his horse).
           From September 28, 1814 until March 27, 1815 he is listed as being in Captain Fleman Hodges' Company, Major William Russell's Separate Battalion Tennessee Volunteer Mounted Gunmen. This unit was combined with a battalion commanded by Major Chiles. There were about 500 men in the battalion. One of the more famous was Sergeant David Crockett in Captain John Conway's Company. The battalion marched from Fayetteville, Tennessee (the point of muster) to Fort Stephens, Alabama and then via Fort Montgomery, Alabama to Pensacola, Florida. Major Uriah Blue was placed in command of the battalion at Fort Montgomery. From there they participated in the storming and capture of Spanish Pensacola, Pensacola, Florida, on November 7, 1814.
            Toward the end of the war the unit was charged with rounding up renegade Creek Indians along the Escambia River.
           David is said to have fought with General Andrew Jackson in the Battle of New Orleans. While that claim is yet unproven we do know that there were at least two regiments of west Tennessee Volunteer Mounted Gunmen under the command of General John Coffee involved in the Battle of New Orleans, December 23, 1814 through January 27, 1815. He was paid a total of $120.40 (of which $72.40 was for the hire of his horse) for this service. He appeared as head of household in the census enumerated 1816 at Mississippi Territory, Madison County, AL. One source shows this entry as Alabama Territory. He was also shown on the Madison County Tax List for 1815.
           His father Robert sold him 80 acres of land in Section 29 of Madison County Mississippi Territory for $500 on January 25, 1819.
           He purchased 79.78 acres of land (at the rate of one dollar and twenty five cents per acre) for $99.72 in Morgan County Alabama from the United States General Land Office via Certificate 1528. The lot was located in Section 11, Township 7S, range 5W. It was the West 1/2 of the East 1/4 of the section.
           He was listed as a head of household on the Morgan County, AL census dated 1830. He was found in Page 201; David Alford was shown with the following people living in his household - 0222001 010020101 indicating there were 2 Males 5-10; 2 Males 10-15; 2 Males 15-20; 1 Male 40-50; 1 Female 5-10; 2 Females 20-30; 1 Female 40-50; 1 Female 60-70 living in the household.
           There are one male and two females who are unknown at this time. It is possible that the older unknown female is the mother of David or of Mary Ann "Polly" Orrick and the female 20-30 is a sister to Mary Ann.
           [On June 18, 1839 he signed a note of Indenture for $700 to William Alford as trustee and Abner Henderson as creditor. Against this note, as collateral he pledged land and personal property. The text of the note follows:]
           This indenture made and entered into this 18th day of June 1839 by and between David Alford, Debtor William Alford Trustee and Abner Henderson Creditor all of the County of Morgan and State of Alabama witnesseth that whereas the said David Alford is justly indebted to the said Abner Henderson in the sum of seven hundred dollars in notes and accounts and the said David Alford being willing and desirous to secure and save harmless the said Abner Henderson in the said sum of money now this Indenture witnesseth that for and in consideration of the promises and in the further consideration of the sum of one dollar to him the said David Alford in hand paid the said William Alford (Trustee) before the signing and sealing of these presents to the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged he the said David Alford hath given granted bargained and sold and by these presents doth give grant bargain and sell unto him the said William Alford, Trustee the following described tracts or parcels of land to wit the West 1/2 of the NE 1/4 of Section No. 11 in Township No. 7 of R5 west also the East 1/2 of the North West 1/4 of Section No. 12 in T no. 7 R no. 5 west in Morgan County Alabama.

She was listed as attending school. Ellen A. Davis married John William Henderson, son of Abner Newton Henderson Sr and Levisa "Vicey" Alford, circa 1855. [I can find no documentation to support this marriage except that Dorothy Partain says it's so. Dorothy also says the two children listed in the 1860 Pike County AR Census are from this union. Since three of her siblings married into this Henderson family it is likely that the two families were well acquainted. We do know that John William married a woman who bore him one child in 1855.]. Ellen A. Davis died circa 1857 at Pike County, AR. [Ellen appears to have died giving birth to her daughter, Nancy L. Nancy L. was shown at age 3 in the 1860 Pike County AR Census living with her father and step-mother, Elizabeth Ann Covington.].

William Pleas Henderson married Easter A. Whitlock circa 1856. William Pleas Henderson married Frances Caroline Burkett circa 1858 at Pike County, AR.
