Hi Cheryl, I knew about this Morris Gwin. At one point I was hoping that I might have a lead to my Morris, but then I realized that he couldn't be in two places at once. My Morris was in District 96, Edgefield, SC. However, I believe there is still room for my Morris and your Morris to be related. Have you run across the will of Robert Hamilton of Kerrs Creek in Rockbridge Co., VA, who mentions Morris Gwyne in his will? The reference is LOST LINKS by Frances Elizabeth Wheeler and Ethel Sivley Moore, page 498. In the will is, "To Morris Gwyne I bequeath Ten pounds to be paid out of my Real Estate." I just thought you would be interested in this, if you didn't already know about it. Davine Roberets Jacksonville, FL

Hi, I am looking for Gwins that stayed North. PA>OH>WI>MO> and who knows??? I have a will that a John Gwin wrote 28 June, 1831 in the twp. of Charlestown, county Chester, PA. He names Catherine, Hannah, Rachel, Mary a son John Gwin. It states that son John Gwin's inheritance be delivered to him. (that tells me that son John was not in the same area njk) Catherine and Hannah, was made executixed of the will. The will was signed by Catherine Gwin, 11 Sept 1835. as other witnesses did also. When the will was approved only Catherine was the excutrix, saying the other one (Hannah; njk) was insane. I am pretty sure that this is my husband's family????? Does the dates or name mean anything to anyone. I sure would like to find out something. Dean's great-grandfather was Theodore Gwin. His great-great-grandfather was John Gwin. This John Gwin m. Margaret Ann Leach/Leech in 1837 in Knox county, OH. She was b. 1816 and died 1842. John was b. abt 1817 in PA. Theodore was b. in Knox county 1841 and died 1915 in MO. He was taken and raised by his Aunt and Uncle Catherine Gwin who had m. John Singery. Is the the same Catherine, I doubt it>maybe an Aunt??? In Theodore's obit; it states that his only brother died about a year ago.......no name would have died abt 1914. That his father died about 1885. (no place was mentioned) for the his father or his only brother. I have no idea what the brothers name was. Help, please: I'm sorry about this being so long. :o( Norma Jean Deffenbaugh King [email protected]
