The Hale Family - John Aron Hale

John Aron Hale was born on March 22, 1857 in Randolph County, Alabama. Elvie was born on May 5, 1871 in Randolph County, Alabama. The couple became the parents of seven children: Howard Glover, Garland R., Ella R., Bessie Lou, James W., Byron J. and Charlie Brewer. Elvie died on August 8, 1940 in Troup County, Georgia. John died on October 28, 1941 in Hogansville, Troup, Georgia. John was buried next to his wife at Shadowlawn Cemetery in LaGrange, Georgia.
In Coweta County, Georgia, there is a J. A. Hale who married a Carena Tennant and had the following children, G. W. A., Callie, Luther, Evie L., Parker L., Robert A., and Hattie M. Several researchers believe that J. A. is also John Aron and that he and Carena were divorce sometime between 1898 and 1904 and John then married Elvie Henson. It is entirely possible that this is the case, but more evidence is needed. In 1900, Carena is living alone with her children and is listed as a widow instead of divorced and John is in Randolph County listed as single. I need more records to know for sure, but I have not found anything conflicting with John being the husband of Carena, just no proof that he was the same John as the one Carena married.
