My gggrandfather was a Burgis Howard who married a Hannah? I can't find him in the census but I find my ggrandfather Rowan Howard living with his mother Hannah ??. Rowan first married a Elizabeth Owens and later married a Josephine Rex. My grandfather was John Dobbins Howard. I know nothing about Burgis Howard, where he came from, his parents or siblings or even if there were more children besides Rowan. My sister says we are related to the Halls and other families around Rowan County,NC. I just don't know how. This is my mothers side of the family. Mother even said she had Indian blood. If anyone has these names in their tree please let me know Any ifo would be so appreciated. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
