Family and settler connections
George Alderman
Path: George Alderman → Jonathan Howell Alderman → George Washington Alderman
Grade: Strong Probable
Evidence: George Washington Alderman's death certificate names J. H. Alderman as father; the 1870 and 1880 censuses place him in Jonathan's household. The 1880 and 1850 censuses anchor Jonathan as George Alderman's son. Huxford names George among the 1827 settlers.
Open issue: No reviewed original probate names the full chain; the 1827 arrival year is from later county history.
Evidence grades
- Census- or vital-record supported: recent parent-child steps are named or placed in compatible households by census, marriage, death, or comparable records.
- Secondary-supported: a compiled genealogy supplies one or more early generations while local records independently establish the people involved.
- Strong probable: the relationship is well supported, but one part of the settler claim still lacks direct settlement-era proof.
Each generation is judged separately. Marriage, surname, proximity, or a shared household does not by itself establish descent.
