Sharon, I noticed in your message to Lori that you list Gideon and William Farris. I am descended from Gideon's son Thomas who married Anne (Nancy) McNew. I have very little information on Gideon, William (his father), or William (his) son. What I do have is information on the descendants of Thomas and Nancy. Would you be interested in exchanging information?
