My David C. Fleming married Martha (Patsy) Russell in Oglethorpe GA in 1803. When Robert Russell Sr. died, the family moved to Georgia. Robert Russell II married Jane Jefferson Rutherford, and their child Martha (Patsy) and others are in Robert Russell II will. Naturally he was in Robert Russell Sr. will as his brother James. The Fleming family was an allied family. David C. I think, was the son of a David Fleming, brother to Abraham Fleming in N.C. His father David, died before David Jr and was orphaned - he chose to live with Samuel Fleming (who married Elizabeth Rutherford) Elizabeth and Jane Jefferson Rutherford were sisters. Samuel & Elizabeth Rutherford Fleming, removed to Bedford Co. TN. There are two David's in Bedford Co., David NMI Fleming and David C. Fleming. The David mentioned above, I believe is same as David L. Fleming. I have been working on this since 1970 off and on, and my deceased Brother Gene (Eugene) Fleming - we called him Tommy as his middle name was Thomas. Named after his father, Eugene Thomas Fleming Sr. I sent a swab for DNA testing (freebe) now I need to find out if my DNA matches with any other Flemings. Most greatful to share information I have with anyone who is running our line. My email is flemco@wk.net Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
