I am looking from information on John Birch who is on the 1830 Washington Parish LA census. I believe he married Samantha Clowers about 1827. There were 2 children John Richard born 1832 and Mary P (Precilla?) born 1829.

Samantha married second a Bickham son of Abner and Dicey Bickham. They are neighbors on the 1830 census. In 1850 Samantha is listed as S. Miles with these children in the household Mary P Birch age 20, John R age 18, Dicey E. Bickham age 16, Abner age 14, E Miles age 6, Rebecca age 3, John Burkhalter age 19.

I believe John is the son of Richard Birch/Burch and his first wife whose given name may have been Precilla. Richard was born in GA abt 1783. He married second Fanny Vardeman.

What happened to John - did he die before 1833?

Any help in sorting this line would be appreciated.
