Hello, Tennessee researchers, Hello, Patsy, Hello, Geneva, Maybe some of you can help me. I'm searching for info. on Kizzy VENTRESS born ca 1784 in Jones Co, NC. (Goodspeed says she was "native of" TN, but the Ventresses were still in Jones Co, NC in 1784), She died 1819. Was her father David VENTRESS who sold land Kizzy's husband Thomas DICE/DYAS in 1804 in Smith Co, TN? Need marriage information for Thomas DYAS/DICE (any spelling) and Kizzy VENTRESS who married about 1802 probably Smith Co, TN. Would love to hear from some of you.
