Therefore, Wm must have been from the same family as James and possibly a brother to James II? The Colonel purchased 640 Acres from Annias? McCoy in 1788. The land was in Green County NC at the time but you would know it as Oak Ridge, Anderson county, TN today! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
