They moved first to Georgia and spent two years establishing residency so they could be allowed to later move to the lands opening up for settlement in Mississippi. They joined T.

John and Mary Ann (Glasgow) McClellan spent their remaining years in the Holmes, Attala, Carroll, and Sunflower Counties in Mississippi where most of their children continued to live. Their oldest son, James Samuel McClellan, married Hulda Mathis and moved to Old Dorsey County, now Cleveland County, in Southern Arkansas just prior to the Civil War. Hulda McClellan received a letter of dismissal from the Saron Baptist Church to take with her to Arkansas in 1860. Website
