Ziba and Tabitha Brooks Hardee’s daughter
Martha Ellen Hardee Butler
Ziba and Tabitha Hardee's third child is Martha Ellen Hardee. She
was born June 1833 in Alabama if you go by what is written on the 1900
census or April 15, 1825 if you go by her tombstone. I believe the
tombstone is incorrect as the 1850 census lists her age at 16 making her
birth date about 1834.
On June 26, 1853 she married Russell Benjamin Butler in Coosa Co., Alabama.
Russell had been married before and his first wife died in 1852, they had five children.
In 1860 Russell and Martha Ellen are living in Coosa County, Alabama with four of Russel's children from his first marriage and four of their children together.
In 1870 Russell and Martha Ellen live in Weogufka, Coosa County, Alabama and have ten children together.
In 1880 they live in Fayetteville, Talladega County, Alabama and nine children live in the household.
In 1900 they live in Holy Pond, Cullman County, Alabama. Russell is listed as 77 years old and Martha Ellen is 66 years old. Their 12 year old granddaughter, Magdelena Martin lives with them. Martha Ellen lists that she had 14 children and 10 are living. Their son William and his family live next door.
Russell Butler died June 2, 1901 in Cullman Co., Alabama. Martha Ellen died Oct. 24, 1914 in Alabama.
