Elizabeth & Christian may be the same individual.
Evidently she died at an early age, so data is not readily available.
On James Brock's findagrave memorial, he is listed as James Gregory Brock. I have not found a source document showing James with a middle name of Gregory. If anyone in the reading audience has a source for this information please contact me by e-mail.

Thank you so much about posting this about my family.Martha Jane Teal and James Brock were my ggggrandparents.Their daughter Lila Jane Brock and George H.Chambers were my gggrandparents.They had 7 children Vella,Vincey Louise,Luna,Harry,Goldie,Bessie,and Ursa.They are buried in Enterprise City Cemetary in Enterprise,Al.Vincey Louise was my ggrandmother and was married to John Marcus Whigham.My grandmother was Mildred Louise Whigham Jones.Vincey and Mildred lived with Lila Jane and George after my ggrandfather died.Vincey died when I was very young and my parents said we were very close.My mother said my ggrandmother loved me very much.I have a picture of Lila Jane Brock and George Chambers and 5 of their children.It looks to be made about the 1880s.I have been told all my life I look like Lila Jane and Vincey.Could you tell me where the Brocks and Teals originally come from? I have found from different people online that they said James Brock was as Gregory James Brock but I also haven't seen any documents to his name.I would love hearing from you as we are cousins.Thanks again,Jennifer Jones Page(JenniferPage53@yahoo.com)
