J.E. McGee
lLooking for any information on J.E. McGee. Middle name is Elbert. We have found possibly where he was born, marriage to Louisa Tarpley, and where he was listed on death certificate of some of his children. We have found no census records at all. Have found a couple of clues for Elbert Mcgee enlisting in Clayton County during the war but cannot tie that person to any confirmation that he is the person we are looking for.

Could this be your couple, think Clayton and Henry County are about 22 miles apart.

Thanks I do have all of that But nothing documenting where he was born and when he died.
I have checked both Clayton and Henry Counties as I do not live far.
William Tell McGee is my gg grandfather.
This looks like the death of Mary Ann E. "Mollie" McGee above. This would suggest her fathers name was Joe ( Joe Elbert McGee ? )

It is. I have that info as well. However I cannot find Joe Elbert or J. E. Anywhere on any census or other records. That is my brick wall. I have a J.E. mcgee but he was my uncle.
The census with Louisa McGee all show she was widowed but I cannot find an obit, death certificate showing him dying.
Did you ever get the answer to this question?
No
