ASBURY GALLOWAY

Elbe Asbury Galloway, the son of William F. and Lavisa McClure Galloway, was born about 1830 probably in Rabun County, Georgia. Asbury married Emily Searcy in Gilmer County, Georgia on 21 December 1848. Emily was born about 1830 in North Carolina. While I have found them on census records, I lose them after the 1860 census, if anyone can tell me where they are I would appreciate it. Asbury and Emily had these children
