Hi, Pamela: I have checked my database and Ruby Finch Thompson's book "FINCH FAMILIES OF DIXIE: 300 Years in the South" and can only find one reference to William DEW and Nancy Jane FINCH which was that they married in Nash County, NC., 6 Jan 1861. The book does not give any other details such as family or location. I found only one reference to Will DEW who m. Nannie RICKS b. 7 Sep 1872 d. 26 Mar 1910. There was no reference to William R. DEW who m. Marsissie Lamm. Later, Rob Pamela Jeans wrote: > > I have some Dew's from Nash County, NC.
