Probably are confused....;-) However, and I don't have the 1820 census here to prove this...but I do think I remember seeing the surname MASON on it. 1820, of course, would be later than the time period Bebe referenced....and with the familial connections you mention, Ann, Nathaniel Macon sounds like a good bet. Still, I wanted to mention my recollection of having run across the surname Mason. I think I made a mental note because of my own curiousity at the origin of a forename in my family, i.e. "Macy." --Sandy NCVance GenWeb: http://lightning.prohosting.com/~ncvance/ Ann Avery Hunter wrote: > > > In the 1784 Warren will of Samuel Yeargain he left the care of his chapel to > > three men, inc.
