However, I haven't that many names yet. At this time the ancestor farthest back in time that I have is: Starling Isaac Newsom married Nancy H. Hamilton before 1835 in Mississippi. They had the following children: 1. Sarah Elizabeth Newsom b: 27 Jul 1833 in Hardeman County, Tennessee. 2. Obadiah Starling Newsom b: abt 1835. 3. Theophilus Hamilton Newsom b: abt 1836. 4. Mary Jane Newsom b: 4 Jan 1838. 5. John Newsom b: abt 1840. 6. Hester Lucy Newsom b: 1842. 7. Nancy A. Newsom b: 1845. Do you have any of these people in your line? Thanks, Joellen
