Andrew Rosson, son of Joseph Osborn, married one Elizabeth M Rosson on 24 Dec 1840 in Marshall Co, TN. Does anybody have any info on who Elizabeth is? Please tell me he didn't marry his sister!

J Worth Rosson
While looking at Middle TN Family Histories by M.A. Tucker & H.C. Marsh, I came across a J Worth Rosson who married Alma Bartlett on 3 Oct 1889 "at the home of the bride in Cornersville, Tenn." He apparently was born 13 Jan 1850. Anybody have any info on whose child this guy is?

Re: The rossons of southern middle tn in the early 19th cent
And Abner Rosson also ended up in Hardeman county. Speaking of which, can somebody give me his kids names? I recall having some difficulty reconciling what I had seen in other peoples trees on ancestry with censuses. There are entirely too many Johns, Josephs, and Williams in the Rosson tree.
