I am absolutely 100% sure this is our Andrews lineage. It matches perfectly with the research I have been doing on my Wiley P. Mangum's father John Mangum Jr., born 1763, in Mecklenburg, VA. Nancy Andrews and John Floyd III. were married, 04 Jul 1783 in Lunenburg County, VA. Their first child was born 1784, in Newberry, South Carolina. I believe Nancy Andrews was the daughter of William Andrew Jr. and Ann Brooks. John Floyd was one of the appraisers who appraised John Mangum SR's., estate in Newberry, South Carolina, in 1794. I am saying John Mangum, Sr., reason being, his parents may have been William Mangum and Mary Person and not John Mangum and Olive Savage. John Mangum's SR's, eldest son was named William Mangum, they usually named the oldest son for the father.

Sorry this is so lengthy. Jo Ann Crafton
Enjoying the conversation about this family again. You mentioned a specific marriage date for Nancy Andrews to John Floyd III. It is not in my book, so I was wondering if there is a Bible record? If so, please share, because there may be other information that we do not have. Also, the maiden name of William Andrews' wife.... Avis Garnett. I think we found substantial proof about three years ago that Avis Garnett was a different, much younger person. So far, no one has come up with Avis's maiden name, but it's something I would love to have.
