    • Lei was not mentioned in the "History of the William Pickle Family" written by Jack Pickel. However, he did note that in the 1800 census there was one female less than 10, and he speculated that this might have been a daughter.

      Lei is definitely identified in "The Pickel Family of South Carolina" -- notes that were recorded in a leather bound, handwritten notebook, that was written by James Marion Pickell, grandson of William Pickel. Moreover, he claimed that he met Lei about 1872 when she came to visit his father, James Elbert Pickell.

    • The official date for the 1800 Census is 4 August, 1800. On this census his name was spelled 'William Pickle.'

      There is one male between 16 and 25; William would have been 24. There are three females: one under 10, one between 10 and 15 and one 16-25 (this was probably Elizabeth Wilson Pickle who would have been 18).

      Three lines down there appears to be a James Wilson. If so, could this have been Elizabeth's father?
