Gene and all, Margaret Queen's will was found in Iredell Co. NC in will book 2, page 89. The will was probated in 1832. It states " All the property that I have in Tennessee at James McBrooms I leave for him to dispose of as he thinks proper. She then appoints her son-in-law Samuel Correll and Quillen Williams Sear executors of the last will and testament. The will was witnessed by Evan Ellis and John Hendren. Now, please tell me -- who is James McBroom? Is this a brother of Margaret's or some other relative? Jean O Eugene Queen wrote: > Hi Jean Jackson, > > Wow! What luck!
