I'm looking for information on WILLIAM KIDD, born about 1790 (give or take) in NC, married to ZILPHA KIMBROUGH, born about 1790 in NC. They were married January 2, 1810 in Caswell County, NC. I have a few children, ALFRED, born about 1830 in TN, MARTHA, born about 1834 in TN and OSCAR CASEY, born about 1840 in MS. I'm quite sure there are more children as these were found in 1850 when William and Zilpha are alread 60 years old, if the ages per census are correct. This is a new line of research for me. Had a ton of Kimbrough info fall into my lap, but need much help with the KIDD'S. Lots of Williams in our line. Thanks for the time. Hope to hear from someone. Jenny in Texas eddnick@aol.com
