My 3rd great grandparents, John Page Milam and Sarah Fuller Milam (Laurens Co., SC) were the parents of a Leander Jones Milam who was born about 1826. Sarah's grandfather was Capt. Jones Fuller who was originally from VA but died in Franklin Co., NC. Capt. Jones Fuller's mother was Mary Jones who married Solomon Fuller. They were probably from Isle of Wight VA. I have a feeling your Joneses and mine are probably the same somewhere down the line in VA, but Mary is as far back as I'm certain of. Any information you could give me might help me answer come questions. Many thanks, Brenda Roberts Shelton
