Thank you for the inquiries. For Joyce; my White line is through my paternal grandmother Nora Elmina WHITE SAMPSON. The Whites came from NY and traveled to Washington State and back to Oklahoma and Texas. I'm sure there are some also in Arkansas, but I haven't made the connection yet! Virginia; my PROCTOR line starts with my g-grandmother also on the paternal side. Her name is Mary Ellen PROCTOR SAMPSON. Her family comes from Virgina and westward to Bowie County Texas. This is my site on rootsweb; http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=1817305 Look in the index and follow back from either Nora White or Mary Proctor to find ancestors. Research Surnames: SAMPSON, HIGGS, WHITE, GRIFFIN, LUMPKIN, PROCTOR, SMITH, NICKLES from areas NY., MS, NC, AR, OK, TX, GA.
