Hello, Well, I usually am looking at this List for my Marsh ancestors, but I also descend from Abraham Estes through his son Richard. The Estes intermarried in GA with my Kyle, Sanders and Mitchell relatives several times, so I have a lot of Estes blood in me. Have you ever corresponded with David Estes in Australia? He has a huge database of descendents of Nicholas Estes. And I have a large list of descendents of Richard Estes. There is also a magazine called "Estes Trails", have you seen it? If not, I can put you in touch with the publisher.
