Bill, Parrish is my married name. I've been divorced for over 20 years and have never researched the Parrish line, as my daughter cares nothing about genealogy -- unfortunately. I do know that my ex-husband's father, William Arley PARRISH, came from Soddy Daisy, TN. That's all I know about them. My ELTONs were in Mecklenburg County, NC. bp ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, August 22, 1999 2:35 PM Subject: Re: [NCMECKLE] JOHN H. SKIPPER Hi Betty, saw you on roots-web and wondered if your family was in Granville or Mecklenburg counties, NC. Bill Parrish
