Amelia appears to have been in Wilkes Co. first. Therefore, I would assume that that is where her parents are to be found. You will find her first husband there which lends evidence to this idea. Have you checked the Joyce Poole Chart online? I am not sure, but your Amelia might be #65. I know that Joyce thought that she was related back in 2000. However, I do not know her present thought. She is writing the Heard family book and it will probably be out with in the year. I don't remember the other name.
