No, Don, I am still banging my head up against that same brick wall, John Field(s) Sr born 3 Dec 1763, Rhode Island, moved to Dobbs/Greene County, NC and later to Henry County, TN! I'm about ready to try DNA testing if my father will open his mouth ;-) Its tanderz below who has found some relatives, not me. I WISH!
