Hi, I saw your post and think I remember seeing something about this couple somewhere. I think Susan's father was Cade Alford, and they came to MS from Madison County AL. Tallahatchie County has a will for Cade Alford, whom I believe originated from Wake County, NC, but was in Madison Co, AL before 1820 and at least through 1830.
James Alford, some kin of Cade, had land in the same section as Daniel Young Sawyers, whom I am researching.
