If I am connected to Fleming or Harvie(as I have always suspected), it would be early on into the 1790s. They did come from the same areas, but since I could never verify Gray's parents I was at a brick wall. I'm going to check out the DNA site (sounds a bit like cheating..haha). I assume then, that my father or son would have to submit the sample? It would be great if I could break through that brick wall. Kathy in CA

Dear Kathy, You are right; it would have to be early on. I went online and looked up your Gray Jordan m Peggy Chandler. It would definitely have to be early on. Fleming was the son of Matthew JORDAN and Judith Scott WARE. Reuben JORDAN was his brother and Rueben (m Jeanette HARVIE) was my gggg-grandfather. Rueben JORDAN was the father of Mortimer Harvie JORDAN and Mortimer was the father of my gg-grandmother, Martha Gaines JORDAN. You are also right about the DNA thing. It would have to be your brother, father, son, or any male cousin with the surname of JORDAN. It would be better to have a direct male relative. How did you get to Ca. all the way from the south? Just had to ask.
