i have been trying to find an elijah anderson who was listed as the father of george w. anderson (born 1872 and died june 1941) in constance, boone co., ky. george's death certificate listed eljah as his father and mary burke as his mother. after all my years of searching for ancesters this is the most difficult for me. george was married to josephine zimmer at constance, ky. they are buried in constance cemetary. the death certficate states they (elijah and mary) were from ohio, but all of the census reports state they were from ky. george's wife also gave 1870 as george's birth year, but all census reports stated 1872. his obit stated he became a citizen of constance when he was 6 years old. any info on elijah and mary would be greatly appreciated. da dash484@yahoo.com
