A descendant of this John, Brenda Riddle Poteat of Spartanburg, SC and I exchaged information on this family in 1997. We were not able to establish a connection. Some of the children of my John W. Riddle, Sr. (1765-1844) reported that they were born in SC, however I have no proof that my John was in SC at the time they said that they were born. I know of two other people that are researching your John Riddle's line. The last contact that I had with these folks was in 1997 so the following contact information may be wrong: > >Brenda Riddle Poteat >455 Coopertown Road >Spartanburg, SC 29307-4649 > >Neal Riddle >6006 Natick CT. >Burke, VA 22015 > >Bill Putnam <BPutnam275@aol.com> > >If you find out where you John came from or if you find out that we are connected some where, please let me know. > >Richard > > > > >At 08:52 AM 7/9/99 -0400, you wrote: >> >> >>I am trying to trace my John Riddle.
