All I have is Mary Gwyn Garrett and her brother Morris Gwyn. Time frame on these folks are from 1750-1829. They left PA and headed south to VA and over to KY. As far as I could prove, Morris never married since his will and estate papers left all his land etc to his sister Mary Gwyn Garrett's children. Cheryl Cheryl, I thought I might have found parents for my Morris or Maurice Gwyn/Gwin, etc. until I read that this Morris Gwyn never married. My Morris Gwyn was in District 96, SC as early as 1757 (age about 17 or 18). I have no idea where he lived before this date. Would you happen to have any leads for me, or would you know where I might look? Many thanks, Davine

    3. Davine, I do wish I could be of better help. I am able to place Mary and Morris near Philadelphia from several sources referecing my Mary Gwyn Garrett's life in KY. My Gwyn/Garrett first went to VA. Morris remained there after his sister my gggg grandmother Mary Gwyn Garrett headed to KY. Morris Gwyn as well as my PA Garrett family traveled with the Hamilton family of PA. While in Rockbridge VA Morris acquired much lands, as his estate and inventory were very worthy. I do have a copy of Morris Gwyn's will, a shorter version would be found. Will Records of Fayette County, Kentucky 1794-1818 Fayette County, Kentucky Will Records Book A OSPage: 25 Name: Morris Gwyn My nephew, Morris Garrett; Heirs: Eli, Lewis, Wm., Morris, and Thomas Garrett; and Rebecca and Phebe Garrett Written: January 3, 1798 Probated: April 16, 1803 Exe.: William Hamilton Witnesses: Anne Hamilton, Peggy Hamilton, and James Hamilton My thought is that my Morris Gwyn never married, or if he did, he did not have issue, as proving that his estate went to the Garrett children.
