Supposedly they did come from Northampton county, NC. Which Futrell is you earliest TN ancester? Daniel came across the border from Trigg and Christian County, Ky after the War of 1812, which he participated in. It's been suggested (but with no concrete proof that I've seen) that he was the son of Sanders Futrell. Both he and his wife Mary Burden or Burken are brick wall for me.

Sandy, I'll glady do that!! I will make a note & put the names in my folder right now..Strangely enough, I descend from Futrells also..and I am not having much luck finding them..Did you ancestors come from Northampton Co NC by any chance?? Don't worry, I'll find the cemetery..It may take several tries, but we always eventually find them..Hopefully, the weather will straighten up, and I'll get that way before long. I was just at Henry Co Library last week..I love that place! Later...
