No I do not.....perhaps you can find the reference. I only put the Rule name down cause they married into the Turney family. Sumner County TN Probate Data 1787-1808 Abstracted by Gale W. Bamman and Debbie W. Spero July term 1789 page 26 Will of Henry Rule, dec'd proved by Edward Jones; and Catherine Rule and John Rule qualified as exec. Peter Rule married Mary Hancock who must have been born in 1790s....this Hancock family married into Turney, Adams, Turner, Spurlock families living along Clear Forks in Smith Co TN....later it would be Dekalb and Cannon counties. Jasper Rule married Rebecca Turney born 1811 along Clear Fork d/o George Turney and Catherine Barger.....1861 Jasper Rule is administrator on estate of Rachel Turney Bogle the daughter of his wife Rebecca Turney Rule. that is about all I have....try to find the Marshall Co TN reference.
