Mr. Pritchett, I just checked my "Murray County Heritage" and on page 496, found the following under the heading of Future Farmers of America: "In 1980 the FFA String Band was invited to the National FFA Convention in Kansas City , Missouri. Members were Jim Pankey, Mark Tatum, Robert Leonard, Bobby Patterson, and Mike Davis, Advisor. This is the only mention of Pankey in this publication, and it wwas submitted by G.I. Maddox in 1981. There are 5 Pankey's listed in the Chatsworth phone book; Dawn, Hobert, James, John M. and Mark. If you don't already have this info, maybe it will help. Still searching for my grgrandpa in Spring Place, Murray County. Tom P. Carter-Houston, TX -----Original Message----- From: D.K.

But I was just now looking at his name, which is unusual, and wondered if you had ever looked in census or cemetery lists for alternate spellings or possible nicknames, such as "Leonard" Williams (possible sound-alike or misspelling), or "Lea" or "Lee" Williams? Also, like the others, I think that Gilmer County would be a very likely place to look, since many of the Pankeys lived there. Some of the research I've done makes me think that some of the Pankeys lived near enough to the Gilmer-Murray line that one family might have some documentation in both counties. dkp --- lwilliams60@comcast.net wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: <lwilliams60@comcast.net> > To: <GAMURRAY-L@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 10:29 AM > Subject: [MURRAY] Leander Williams > > > > I am interested in a Leander Williams, born.
