Hi Mary Lou, I, too, have an interest in John Fields. I don't have much, but here's what I have, which was supplied by Jim Rolff. John A. Fields was the son of Nathanal Fields and Mary ? Nathanal Fields was b. in Virginia, and m. Mary ? in Rockingham Co, NC Nathanal is said to be a veteran of the Revolution. --- John's wife Mary Gibson is daughter of Joseph Gibson and Elizabeth Scales. Elizabeth had a brother named Joseph, but I don't have her parents. As I said, it isn't much, but it's something. If you learn more, I would appreciate it if you'd let me know. My connection, briefly, is thus: Thomas Strong & Annie Fields Thomas Strong & (debateable) William Dodson Strong & Elizabeth Bailey Thomas V.B. Strong & Matilda Ellis Sybil Susan Strong & Fredrick L. Laird Thomas L. Laird & Dolene Moses me. Thanks, Russell Laird >I am new to the list and am looking for any information about John Fields who >was born April 2, 1752 in Hanover County, N.C.
