Happy New Year everybody!

I have a couple of McCrackens that I am hoping to find out more about. Francis Alexina McCracken was born in Jefferson County, Kentucky in 1822. She married Marion Alexander McLean in Van Buren County, Arkansas in 1852. They had five children. Arabella (Belle) born in 1844 and married Daniel Morrison. Lavinia born in 1846, and just disappears. John Alexander born in 1850 and married a Jane E. Vantrease, Allen Graham born in 1854, married C. Emma Shackelford, and Uten? born in 1857, who also just disappears off the face of the earth.
Francis had an older sister Mary E. , born in 1811, that married a Waring.

I think the parents were John McCracken and Jane Dinwiddie, but I have no proof. John McCracken was born in Maryland and Jane in Virginia. Jane is living with Allen and Francis on the 1850 Census.

Does anyone out there have any information? Would really appreciate any help.
