CLARK, JENNINGS, MADDEN, PORTERFIELD, STEPHENSON posted by Taleah Wilkinson on Saturday, October 3, 1998
I'm looking for information on the family of William and Mary CLARK MADDEN; the records here in Dade County show that their son my Great Grandfather Charles Albert MADDEN was born June 1, 1865 in Saline, Mo., I believe that it should read Saline Co, Mo. as I know from the 1870 Chariton County Census records show that his older sister Sarah Sally Madden Jennings, b. 1845 Ill., and their brother Tom Madden, b. 1855, where living there. Another sister lived in this area also her name was Tessa Lee Madden STEPHENSON, b. abt. 1863, she stayed in the area and raised her children there. Another sister Jane Waddle Madden PORTERFIELD b. Sept. 3, 1847 in Cangamon Co, Ill., m. Jan. 19, 1865 to John Porterfield, may have also lived in the area, before coming to Dade Co., some of the family say she came directly to Dade Co., Mo. from Ill. My mother said she was told that my Great Grandfather came to Dade county from somewhere up North because his two older sister was already here. I don't have any birthdates on William and Mary Clark MADDEN, I know that the first two sibs., was just two years apart in age Sarah Sally and Jane Waddle, and that Tom was abt. 10 years younger than the first two, and that there was three other girls, Maggie (who married a Jennings), Tessa Lee b. abt. 1863, Anna b. abt. 1862 (died at age 14), then Charles Albert b. abt. June 1, 1865. My Grandmother was always puzzled by the fact that her father had these other siblings that was so much older. I would appreciate anything that you have on these Maddens and anything on the surname of MADDEN, CLARK, PORTERFIELD and JENNINGS; I know that the first name of Sarah Sally Madden Jennings was William we think he might have been from this area, and that he was some how related to Maggie Madden Jennings husband. We know that Maggie Madden Jennings went to Oklahoma, after her marriage and was there in 1936. We don't know what happened to William Jennings we just know that Sarah Sally was remarried to someone by the name of Gallentin, as we have found her in the census records as Sarah B. Gallentin. Thank you
