Ignore the spelling (Gillaspie/Gillespie/Galaspie, etc). I am searching for information on the Gillaspie family of Tazewell Co VA. My ancestor is Henry Gillaspie b. abt 1798 VA. One great lead from Peggy indicates he may have left VA around 1835 for parts unknown. If our Henrys are one and the same, he originated in Tazewell Co. VA. Henry married in TN a woman named Nancy b. 1817. Their children were all born in AL (most likely Jackson Co): Patrick henry b. 1841, William H. b. 1846, Mary b. 1850. Would like to hear from someone researching the Tazewell Co VA Gillespies. Barb
