Hi Sharon, My Bonds' line starts with my great grandmother, Mary A. Bonds daughter of Greenberry Bonds. Greenberry Bonds was son of Wright W. Bonds, Sr. Then we are now trying to prove that W. W. Bonds, Sr was the son of John Bonds (a Rev. War soldier). Since your line and mine were both in Tishomingo Co I bet they are connected. W. W. Bonds, Sr had a Livery Stable and Hotel business with a Richard Burress in Leighton, AL 1830-1833. I have a copy of their log book. It is very difficult to read and of course is not indexed. By 1836 both men were in Tishomingo Co MS, Jacinto area. I do not know where W. W. Bonds, Sr lived when he died but some say he lived in the Danville community. I'm searching for a will now that I think someone said was probated in 1854 in Tishomingo Co.
