Ms Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ms/Covington/818 Surname: ------------------------- I must tell you that I have not really researched the Dees line but rather the Terrell line. I know that a Mrs. Ophelia Quick had done some research on the family and had things from their reunions. Lisa whose e-mail you should have has also done work on the family. As far as the Terrell connection, see if this makes sense: There were 3 sisters: Sarah Warren m: Graves, Elizabeth Warren m: James Miller, and Rebecca Warren m: Marvel Stone Elizabeth Miller married John Terrell Dees, he the son of Arthur Dees and Lucy Terrell. Mary Miller married William S. Terrell, he the son of Josiah Terrell. Josiah & Lucy Terrell were siblings so one of each of their offspring married a Miller girl. These Warren, Miller, Terrell, & Graves families were all intermingled.
