Thanks for posting. You are absolutely correct. So many families are connected. Your Nancy Matilda GUESS husband Isaac Marion CUMMINS is my connection. Isaac Marion CUMMINS father was Willis Wilburn CUMMINS, who had a sister Mary Ann CUMMINS who married Isaac ELLARD. Isaac and Mary ELLARD had a son Isaac Milton ELLARD who married Emma Louise CHERRY. Emma CHERRY was sister of my ancestor Sarah Ann CHERRY who married Albert ECRCANBRACK. Also Nancy BRISTER, who married Martin GUESS, had a sister Rachel BRISTER who married Wiley GREEN. Wiley and Rachel GREEN had a daughter Nancy Matilda GREEN who married William Pinkney CUDD and their daughter Rachel Sarah CUDD married Jacob IVEY ancestors to my daughter-in-law. Small world. Also mentioned that Moses GUESS wife Mary BLAIR was a 1st cousin to Daniel BOONE. I know that Daniel BOONE's mother was Sarah MORGAN who married Squire BOONE. Daniel BOONE was brother of my ancestor Israel BOONE Vicki ************** Great Deals on Dell Laptops. Starting at $499.
