Is there any connection between this SULLIVAN line and that of Thomas SULLIVAN who sold land to Samuel WALL in 1805, in northern Randolph County, NC? This Thomas SULLIVAN was listed on the 1803 Tax List in Randolph County, NC as well as my 4x g-grandfather Samuel WALL.. Email me offline if there's any connection.
