Merry Christmas to all, I am looking for connections to the following families who were in Tazewell Co from at least 1800: Joseph McGUIRE b cir 1774 in Va and married Elizabeth Brown, d/o James and Ester Goff BROWN. Known children of this union were James b cir 1800 m Elizabeth (Betsy) Brown 1821,~~ Sarah (Betsy) b cir 1800 m John M LOCKHART 1822, ~~ Cornelius b 1804 m Margaret STEELE 1825, ~~ Elijah b 1809 m Elizabeth CLAYPOOL 1832 ~~ William b 1812 m Rachel WINGO 1836, ~~ John Nealy b 1814 m Mary (Polly) ASBERRY 1844, ~~ and Evaline b 1817 m Joseph MAYS. My direct line decends through Cornelius and Margaret Steele, on paternal and maternal sides. I am especially interested in determining the parents of Joseph . He does not seen to belong to William McGuire and Mary Shirley who were also in Tazewell Co at this time period. But he was most likely related to William, maybe a cousin or uncle. Any and all help will be appreciated. I do not have a lot on this family, but will I wil gladly share what I do have. Thanks.
