Evelyn, Thanks so much. My wife's linage is through Samuel son of Jacob and Elizabeth. Cool. I can fill in a few items. Edward Lee Egnor, son of Samuel Newberry Egnor and Sarah McKeehan married Ida Smith in McDowell Co., WV abt 1916, had 8 children, 4 dying in infancy. Ida died when she was 28 years old and is burried on a mountain top overlooking Pocohantis (sp?) VA. Edward's half brother was Elijah, who settled somewhere around Harlan, KY. Do you know where in North Carolina that Samuel from Germany lived? There seems to be some coincidence in that according to various posts recently there were other Samuels married to Mary Polly's, or maybe someone out there can clarify this. This is just really neat. When I visited my mother-in-law this past fall, she could only remember about the family back to Samuel Newberry Egnor. Note, that the spelling changed from his father to him. Don't know how that happened. Oh yes, Edward Lee Egnor was born in Boyd, KY according to the marriage Certificate. Do you know any info on that? I have copies of photos of Samuel Newberry, Sarah McKeehan, Edward Lee, and Ida lifted from the handle of a pocket knike that Edward Lee Egnor carried. It was his prize possession. The knife is now with Maurice Lee Terry, Grandson of Edward. Once again, Thanks so much, Jim Davis
