Actually, there are 2 of them (related families).

You've been really helpful... thanks! Rachel Christian Query Subject: David Greer Reply to:[email protected] Dates: 1750-1855. Wife: Mary/Martha Sims. I am specifically looking for a copy of his will (Anderson Will Book B, 1541 archive roll), although any information would be appreciated. His daughter Martha Ann married John Milton Dunlap. Any information about the related families (Sims, Dunlap) is welcome also. Thanks! (End of query 1.) Query Subject: Nathaniel Haynes Reply to:[email protected] I have no dates on this person. He married Jane Smith. His daughter Rebecca (1869-1955) married Servitus P. Dunlap (son of John & Martha Greer Dunlap). I need any information that anyone can provide. Thanks! (End of query 2.)
I may have some info on David GREER. There's always been a question as to whether he was related to my Robert GREER so I've kept what I've seen on him. Let me look.
