I do not believe that James Henry Cross age 26 was one of mine. He was the son of Elkanah Cross and Mary Margaret Hawkins. My fourth great grandfather William Cross the Revolutionary War drummer boy had a son named Elkanah, and I have been seeking information on William's son Elkanah. The Elkanah Cross who married Mary Margaret Hawkins does not seem to have been the son of William. So this line of research seems to be a dead end and is included only for completeness. "I.T." is my abbreviation for Indian Territory, which was one of the names of Oklahoma before it became a state. Another early name for Oklahoma was Cherokee Nation. |

Mary Margaret Hawkins was the widow of Elkanah Cross born 1833 in Virginia. My fourth great grandfather William Cross the Revolutionary War drummer boy had a son named Elkanah, and I have been seeking information on William's son Elkanah. The Elkanah Cross who married Mary Margaret Hawkins does not seem to have been the son of William. So this line of research seems to be a dead end and is included only for completeness. |
