Both Nancy and Amanda are found in the descendants of Sashwell and Jeremiah Jordan families who moved from Bedford Co. VA to Breckinridge Co. KY late 18teens. Jeremiah returned to VA, but Sashwell stayed on. The JORDAN brothers married DENT sisters, and the DENT line goes back to Charles Co. Maryland. Sashwell doesn't have a daughter Nancy, (his wife is Nancy), but you might check Jeremiah & Lydia (Dent) Jordan family. Sorry, I don't have a list of their children 'handy'. >Nancy Jordan was born about 1811 somewhere in Virginia. She married Eli >Thrasher (who had been born in the Bedford Co.
