Happy hunting... > > Barbara > Visit my Virginia Connections website > http://expage.com/page/eakley Barbara, Just visited your website -- and we're *distant* cousins -- my husband's family is decended from Charles' brother William, who married Martha Johnson. Their children were John, William, Charles, Samuel and Daniel. John married Ann (no surname we've found yet). Their children were John and Jeremiah (that we know of). Jeremiah married Sarah (Sally) Willis Ingram and they moved to Union Co., SC. Their children were William, Ingram, Willis, John, Jesse, George, Peggie and Sallie (that I can substantiate, anyway). My husband Jeff's grandad, James Blount (or Blunt) is one of Jeremiah's boys' children, but I haven't been able to find the connection yet -- the family member that sent me the information didn't specify which son it was, and was not in good health at the time, as has since died. I do know William, Willis and George moved to Lawrence Co., TN in the early 1800s, and that Ingram went to KY about the same time. James Blount ended up in Dyer Co., TN in the late 1800s, where Jeff's dad is from. James B. was married to Sarah Cunningham in Lawrence Co., TN in 1863. Well, now that you know more than you ever wanted to about our branch, I will let you go...but let me say it's such a thrill to see that the research I've been doing is correct.... I like the webpage -- great graphic! Thanks much for sharing your information. Dixie Lucas
