Familytreemaker site failed to upload and display. I had no choice. You can now access it at this clickable URL; http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/v/a/n/Gloria-kay-Vandiverinman/ I would like to caution you that the folk lore that Nellie Feathers was the dau of Big Feathers is just that. Something that SOMEONE said, and has been picked up by many, many other individuals and taken as gospel. After years and years of research, I have not found any evidence to substantiate this. As a matter of fact, it may well be possible that she was related to the Lawrence and Barbara Feathers of Sullivan Co, Tennessee, who were performing land transactions in Lee Co, VA about the same time. Also, take the time to review the "Feathers" genforum, particularly "re: John L. Feathers / Sullivan Co, TN" by Allen Edwin Feathers, dated Sep 2001 (a partial extract is quoted in my online Clark/ston book cited above) If anyone has any documentation to prove or disprove Nellie's parentage, I would dearly love to see it. Thanks Gloria Kay Vandiver Inman
