Helen, I have info indicating Coonrod Poyle (Pyle) was born in Germany in 1745. His parents came to America with him at the start of the Revolution. They settled in NC and he married there. In 1791 he settled in Fentress Co TN. They always spelled their name they way they wanted -- Poyle, Pile, Piles, and Pyle. And as I said they even used Poiles (my maiden name).
