    1. James Bowlin ca 1770-1861 & Edmund Bowlin & wife Fanny Goin
    2. The McKnight's
    3. also Julie Anne- I just found a few of my Patrick, Henry & Pittsylvania Cos VA notes. Lela Adams ABSTRACTS OF PITTSYLVANIA CO VA WILLS 1767-1820: p. 5 James BOULLING (BOLLING) p. 383-5. 20 May 1771-24 Sept 1772. Wife Elizabeth Daus & sons JOHN, JAMES, and WILLIAM. William was left land on Boling Creek in Pittsylvania Co VA. Isham Edwards was a witness. Is this family of interest to anyone? I do not know it - just searching for my line. James PLEASANT Bolling, son of John Tarpley Bolling (Todd Bolen's book p. 87)- this was in Judge Zelma Price's line, as I recall. Now another question that may relate to my husband's line: James BOLIN m. 1797 Sarah McKNIGHT in Rowan Co NC (Todd's book p. 91). I have had that note for decades and still do not know that Sarah McKnight nor James Bolin. My husband's David McKnight & brothers James and William moved from Iredell/Rowan Cos. NC to Middle TN around 1800-1804. Lela Adams, ABSTRACTS OF WILLS, INV. & ACC. OF PATRICK CO VA 1791-1823: p. 19 (WB I p. 80) 4 June 1805 - Dec Ct 1805: WILL OF Shadrack GOING: mentions Fanny GOIN wife of Edmund BOWLIN. (Fanny apparently a dau of Shadrack) WHO WAS THIS EDMUND BOWLIN? He is on p. 46 of Todd Bolen's vol 1, 2nd edition. I am interested because Edmund Bolen was in 1810 tax list of Grainger Co TN (see same page Todd's book). My Alexander Bowling was in Grainger Co TN 1804-5 tax list. Later some Goin-Bowling marriages are in Grainger Co TN. I wonder if there is a connection with my Alexander Bowling's line. There was a Rev. War soldier Edmond Boling (b. ca 1760 - see p. 45 of Todd's book) in Greene Co TN m. 1817 to Polly Bryant. Had 6 young sons named in his will. Was this the EDMUND, son-in-law of Shadrack GOIN? If so, who were his earlier children, if any? (I sent Leslie a copy of pension application recently) Lots of questions. Any answers??? Helen
