Your version maybe easier, does it have Insel/Incill Watkins and wife Fanny/Thana/Bethany? I have been to their daughter's Patience Watkins Flowers grave (1828 - 1905) and know where they lived from deeds and family knowledge. The Ballance's seem to have lived around Kenly NC as well but I don't know exactly where. You wouldn't happen to know to which Batten man Elizabeth Ballance (William and Peggy's daughter) was married? If I can help you, as well, let me know.
