According to family tradition, Elijah Worley was the husband of Nancy Sego. However, he does not appear separately in any Census. It is not even known if his name was Elijah. They had two daughters, Sarah Jane and Eliza Jane. Following the death of Elijah, Nancy Sego married Alexander Meadors in 1850. This family appears in the 1850 Census:

1850 Census- District 2, Whitley County, KY, p. 410 (dn/fn = 303)
Alexander Meadows	age 19	b KY
Nancy Worley	age 26	b KY
Sarah Worley	age 07	b KY
Eliza Worley	age 03	b KY

This family should not be confused with the family Nancy Worley listed elsewhere in the Census. That Nancy Worley is the possible widow of Pleasant Worley.
