My great grandparents were Henry Bizzell and Mary Stevens [nee Peterson] Lewis Catherine Vann was the daughter of Enoch & Rebecca Vann; granddaughter of William and Phoebe Vann; great granddaughter of Edward and Mary Ann [nee King] Vann and great-great granddaughter of William and Sarah Vann. Each generation has an Elizabeth in it but none born ca. 1811. I also do not have any Lindsays in my sur name file. I can add some amplifying information if any of this is of interest.

My great great grandmother, Elizabeth (Dizy) Vann (b. 1811, d. ? ), who was married to Thomas Lindsay ( b. ca 1810, d. 1839 Sampson Co, NC ). Upon the death of Thomas Lindsay in 1839, Elizabeth married Caswell J. Bryant (b. 1826). I cannot prove the name of Elizabeth Vann's father.
