Always glad to help. Wish there was more to offer. Elizabeth Jennings is related to the Weaver line somehow, but since she was so old, before census records had all the names of children, I don't know who her children were that married Weavers. For every answer there are 10 questions, I guess. Good luck, happy hunting. >From: Thelma Hampton <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [TNLINCOL] Jennings slaves; >Date: Mon, 30 Oct 2006 16:34:48 -0800 (PST) > >Donna, Thanks for this information, My cousin in ohio >who is in her late 80's told me our gggrandfather >mother name was Sara.
