I think Zach born 1806 Va was his son, can't see where else Zach came from. I think Zachariah had to be 21 to buy land, not sure. I don't think the other Tn county Sinks are kin to Paul like John, Jacob, and Joseph; I haven't had time to see how old they are, state of birth for parents etc. As for the daughers there are the uncommon names passed to decendants like, Kiziah, Rhoda, Fronica/Frony/Fordonna, Evelyn and the name Martha was passed down, and I still think a Martha was Paul Sr wife name. Hopefully we can add more children. I think it was Madaline Roberts who sent me info one time on Peter Sink being in Mont. Co Tn in 1819 on his account with Lockert & Smith. Maybe Peter in 1820 was in Indiana... I'll get back to the name Jesse soon. We don't know what year Jesse came to Tn but in 1806 timeframe crops failed in NC and people headed for Tn. I think Zach P. (Paul) Sinks born 1812 Tn had to be son of Jesse. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hello, Can you tell me if Andrew "Drewry" Sinks born abt 1810 in VA or TN and married Delilah Hickerson in 1830 is a brother to your Powell Sinks? James Monroe Sinks, son of Andrew and Delilah, is a gr-grandfather to me. James M. Sinks married Susan Baggett and their daughter, LouElla is my paternal grandmother.
