Their daughter Hester Wells married William Harvin and had Margaret A. Harvin, which in turn married Balis Pinkney Byrum. They had their daughter Josephine Byrum, which married my g grand father, James William Whisenhunt. What I was told is Josephine Byrum's family was of Cherokee decent (on the mother's side). No one knew any thing on the mother side of Josephine, with me every thing was a dead ends until I found the family tree of the Harvin's. Then there was a confusion , some thought the surname was Harvert. I wish and pray you can help me with this part of my family tree, because this area is where my family started at!! If you can't, thank you very much for your time any way. And God Bless that way. Sherry
