Hi NC'ers, Larry you are right some of us sit and wait,because sometimes we post things and no one out there connects,so I guess we should put it out there again,Maybe,Huh? does anyone connect to the ROACH family of Orange Co NC.Hillsbourough area I believe, they were on the census there in 1790, they were in Orange county Tax records as early as 1779, James ROACH was the father of our Jn Green ROACH, James ROACH and Ann THOMPSOM had sons William and Drury,the oldest son Absolum B; abt 1770 and the three daughters,Ann, Ellenor, and Elizabeth, there has been some controversy over this family since the 1980's some say that Ann THOMPSON was not the first wife,that some of the children belong to another wife of James. and that John Green ROACH, his son had more than one wife, which is highly unlikely since neither of them was his widow,when he died in Grainger Co.TN. This family moved to Grainger Co.TN by 1809 tax list,at least Absolum ROACH was there by then. does anyone have any documented proof for James ROACH or John Green Roach having other wives. John green Roach M: Margaret Elizabeth McDaniel she was his widow when he died.I need info on McDaniel also. Thanks, Sharon Roach froach598@juno.com
