Surnames: Worrell Bryant Kinchen Byrd Thomas Wellons Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CdB.2ACE/4.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I'll get my cousin's info to you. (Art was my dad). I noticed the NC Worrells seem to be the ones I need to concentrate on. I find Kinchen, Byrd, Thomas surnames very common there but not in the Pennsylvania group. Dorcas also seems very common there. Since Kinchen Thomas Worrell was my GGGfather I checked along those lines. I find a Dorcas Byrd born of John Byrd and Dorcas Lee Hobbs about the right time to be our Dorcas Byrd Worrell but she married someone else and none of her kid's names match. I even found several Bryant surnames but no Bryant Worrell that I can connect to his father (whoever that may be). Another problem I find is that several Worrells came from England at various times (Robert in 1638 VA, James in 1650 VA, Richard and John Worrell (Warrell) in 1684 on the ship's manifest with William Penn). If I could only find Bryant Worrell's dad I would be very happy. I do notice a Benjamin Worrell born to Shadrack and Sally Wellons Worrell in 1790 in Southa! mpton Co, VA. Could Benjamin be Bryant???. Later
