Sarah Thomas married John Dobbins--parents of James and John mentioned in Nehemiah's will. The son of Sarah and John--also named John married Phebe Pearson. John, Jr. and Phebe moved to Alabama. There are many Lagrone/Dobbins marriages in the children and grandchildren of John and Phebe. Definite proof of Sarah and John has not been made. John's will dated Nov 1818 names his wife Sarah, their 3 sons and wives of the sons. Ruth **************Vote for your city's best dining and nightlife. City's Best 2008.

Are we talking about the Sarah who is a twin to Prudence? Do you have documentation on this? I descend from the Nehemiah McKinsey who is mentioned in the same will. I have tried and tried to connect the legatees mentioned in Abel Thomas's will with those named in Nehemiah Thomas's will. If what you are saying is true, it gives me hope that I have not been looking at unrelated families. This would be my first connection between the two. Abel Thomas mentions Sarah's twin sister, Prudence Hawkins, in his will. Oh, phooey....I see in the second paragraph that it is not positive that John Dobbins' wife is Sarah Thomas. I have a small data base that is VERY iffy. In it I have Abel, Isaac, Nehemiah, and Timothy Thomas as siblings.....I would be very happy to have someone prove me right or wrong. I'll add what you have mentioned. Do you mind sharing the names of the sons and wives mentioned in John' will?
