    3. Vernon I most certain want a copy of your works, I was again on your web site in the last night or two on some other families that connect. I wish I could remember which ones I was reading about have to do a search on my files for you LOL. I know I pasted some more notes and placed you as the author. Here is one you provided for Toby Turner Written on May 7, 1793 and proved on April 19, 1802: In the Name of God Amen, I Terisha Turner of the County of Amherst and State of Virginia Did we share Rockfish River Files? Which show how the Shropshire families that are living by Terisha Turner of Rockfish River: whose grand daughter Susannah Turner was married to Rev. War Vet Terisha Johnston's whose families are found in Humphreys Co. Tn. ( Lee Henly Johnson) ( The name Len Henly Turner, Len Henley Bullock start in 1720-1730 Leonard Henley is the Neighbor of Thomas Murrell the fore father of Rev. Thomas Murrell who leads people from Henry Co Va into Big Creek and Carters Valley in 1782 era. Terisha Johnston is selling the lands of Nutbush Creek to John Johnson in Mecklenburg Co with Stephen Johnson and a John Johnson. These lands were bought from John Robinson ( Robertson) father of General James Randolph Robertson who with wife Charlotte Reeves ( Rives or Reaves) lived on Big Creek Washington Co NC ( Lands now in Hawkins Co TN). Nutbush Creek is on the NC and VA Lines some folks in Va other in NC. This Nutbush Creek is first in Brunswick Co Deeds to Mecklenburg Co Deeds, and in I Think Granville Co to Bute Co NC deeds to Warren Co. NC then current County of Vance. (Where we find it today underwater as a damn) I also have reports on the Nutbush Creek Families that you transcribed deeds on. Now to Honeycutt Tn I was noting your report on Shropshires of Honeycutt and one of the researchers that is monitoring this list you had a William Fisher and John Smith subscribing to a Shropshire deed. Did you get that Deed full transcribed. Then back to you reports on Warren County: are you aware that 1774: RICHARD HENDERSON AND THE TRANSYLVANIA COMPANY purchased the lands that are now Hawkins County Tn. one Len Henley Bullock was a partner in this Company. He is a Descendant of Terisha Turner the ancient.

Hi Tony - For your info. I agree. Have been doing research for 60 years... never charged anyone for even mailing a copy. I thought these sites were for exchange of information. I've many family connection's to Hawkins County, i.e. Amis, Mercer, Phipps, Price, Longs, Tucker, Shropshire and other's.... have always been glad to send anyone my records on those families. I know one time years ago you provided info re Shropshire that I wasn't aware. Other's have done the same. J. B. Arnold of Longs Bend was a willing participant in sharing. In anycase, I'm about finished with 14 books re Hawkins County connections/lineage. They will all be put on my web site and/or sent to anyone who request them. Best wishes & know that you do and have done a great service to all... Vernon Drewa, CDR, USN (Ret.) Keller, Texas
