I have looked at your family quite a bit and they are in the same general area and his family names are almost identical to yours. I have seen George listed on a few trees as a brother. Do you have information on George? Some people have indicated his middle name is Lawrence but I'm not sure about that. He was in the Rev War and was married to a Mary or Margaret around 1770 give or take 5 years. He left VA after the war went to GA, TN, IN and died in Illinois near the IN line. I know several members of this family also ended up in Indiana close-by. Woodson is a predominant name in this branch of the family as is Elijah, William, Henry, John, Benjamin and Samuel. I feel they at least are close cousins given the names Thanks for any help you can give. Karen Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
