Note on Marriage
Ebenezer McCants Dunnam came to Ms., about 1834 from South Carolina by way of Mississippi Territory, and Monroe County, Al. He probably Married his wife Elizabeth (Possibly Strickland) in South Carolina before he came South. He was the father of 10 children from 1814 to 1838 (28 years). This is a fairly long period to be having children so he may have been married twice. On the death certificate of his son Ebenezer McCants, Jr., his Grandson James Nathaniel Dunnam was asked his grandmothers name and he wrote Elizabeth (don't know her maiden name)
She and Ebenezer are buried in unmarked graves in a cemetery on the property of Lazarus Walley, near Sand Hill, Greene County, Ms.
