Next McBEE HOFFMAN   HUFFMAN
I am searching for the forbears of my great-grandfather Charles Whifield
Hoffman (also spelled Huffman in some records). A possible couple that might
have been the parents of my great-grandfather was Carles (possible
misspelling) and Eliza Huffman, who were living in Marion County TN in the
1860 census. They had a 3-year-old son named Charles, who would have been
about the right age as my great-grandfather. Carles Huffman was born in
Germany circa 1816, but his oldest child, 9-year-old George W., was born in
Georgia. I found Charles Huffman in the 1850 census for Dade County. He was
there with his wife Eliza, but of course had no children. Since Eliza was
born in North Carolina, there is a good chance that Charles (Carles) may have
emigrated into the United States via North Carolina. Unfortunately, I could
not find Charles (Carles) and Eliza Huffman in the 1870 or 1880 Tennessee
census. Perhaps the Civil War disrupted their lives. Has anyone in Dade
County run across this family and have they any clue as to what happened to
them?
