I was just on gencircles.com and was looking for John MILLS. I found one that married Hester C WHITE. Their dau Hester MILLS married HANKS. That family moved on down to Virginia and their descendants also moved down to Georgia and then to Alabama. Maybe along with John's daughter, there might have been a brother or sister and other relatives who went along with the family down to Georgia and Alabama. Could be a related family of MILLS as well, cousins? Have you looked at those families? Pat cw
