I have a Susannah TYRE, born ca 1802 in possibly ASHE NC to Thomas Tyre & Sarah TAYLOR. She is the sister of my Nancy J. TYRE. She married John MILLER in WILKES CO. NC ca 1830. Her brother John married her husbands sister Nancy there ca 1832. John & Susannah had a daughter Sarah, who married a BILLINGS. Sarah was born ca 1832 d.1919. Her siblings married Burton, and Isom. Susanne's brother, John TYRE married Nancy MILLER and their girls married: WAY/RAE/WRAY, WILLIAMS, McBRIDE. John & Susanne's father, Thomas Tyre was born ca 1779 in either WILKES CO NC or in VA. I know his father was from VA. Millers, McBride, Taylor, Wray also in VA. In another line of mine, KRAEMER/KRAMER/KREAMER/CRAMER/CREAMER, there were SHEPHERDS, from Shepherdstown, BERKELEY VA. I thought I saw OSBORNE in your names, I have them in VA and back to NJ & NY in 1600's. In VA also were my CARR, DAVIS, BEAN, HARPER, and other families. Could there be a connection?
