ALL of these familie you mention except the Drivers, were my ancestors. I'm descended from John Fisher Sr., the Tubbs, Cookseys, and Reynoldses (through James Reynolds, bro. of the John Reynolds who married Mary Driver). Don't know a lot about the Tubbs or Reynoldses as yet.

Hi all, the family I am researching must have lived right on the boundary of Smith/Wilson because they had land in both and appeared on census in both (from one time to another - not both at once). Example: Zedekiah Candler was in Smith for the 1820 census. His son John Candler was on the Wilson tax rolls in the 1820's, but he had land in Smith (Smiths Fork, Dry Creek). Zedekiah's son Winston Candler appeared on Wilson tax rolls in the 1820's but was in Smith for the 1820 census. Winston's neighbors were many of the names that I have seen mentioned in this string. I especially remember how many DRIVERs were in his neighborhood. Winston married a girl named MARY (last name unknown). I wish I could figure out who Mary's parents were. Surely she was a neighborhood gal.
