I had to do a lot of creative searching to find this lady's maiden name, along with her sister, Sarah (who is buried beside her).


I found them on the 1850 Greene County, Georgia census with their parents, Joseph W. Drennan, age 53 b. Pendleton, South Carolina and mother, Charlotte, age 41, also born in South Carolina.


The problem here is that I can only find one other census - that of 1860 in Roswell, Cobb County, Georgia. The spellings are different and I have no idea which is correct. It is Drennon, Drenon, Drennan or something to that effect.


If you know of these people and can help me with the maiden name of Rhoda C. & Sarah L. Drennan, please contact me. I could not find any burial records on any of the children listed.

Zacheus - age 12, b. Georgia

___________


Note: In the 1860 census, Rhoda has moved back home with her young son. That census did not denote widowed, divorced, etc, so status is unknown. After hours and hours of searching, I still did not find the husband of Rhoda and the father of John Henry B. Rosier.

According to Rhoda's obituary, she was survived by two sons, John H. and Frank, but from what I can tell she never had but the one son, John Henry B. Rosier, who was the father of three sons including Frank.
