I am researching the Branch family of Burke Co., NC. Anderson Branch b. in Chesterfield Co., VA abt. 1762 came to Burke Co., NC at some point. He married Telitha Cumi Melton. He died sometime in 1839-1840 in Burke Co., NC. His estate papers list William Winters as executor. I wonder if somehow he relates to the Branch family. What do you think?
