Hi Leneda, Re. your 7/10/99 note, was anyone able to help you? As far as I know, we don't know who were parents of Ephraim (b. c1760). His will date is 21 Mar 1820, Halifax Co VA, names wf & ch. Have you checked the archives? There were some notes on him in Jan. 1998, one of which was a desc. chart posted by Connie Sheets. However, I didn't have any desc. for James CREWS and Anna PRYOR, so thank you! Below is an excerpt from an old Prodigy bb note which references his will, and another note from Prodigy's bb in 1994 from Jefferson Moak to Connie Sheets which has some info. with references to Halifax Co VA CREWS (but not necessarily all of the same CREWS family).
