Walt, The information that I have on the Vance family is through the Brandon's. Jane Gillespie 1801-1869 (m) David Vance, Jr. 1785-1852. Jane was the d/o John Gillespie 1773-1868 and Elizabeth "Polly" Brandon 1776-1815, d/o Wm Henry Brandon, Capt. 1748-1836 and Hanna Erwin. David Vance, Jr. and Jane Gillespie are listed in hh#98 of the 1850 Macon County, TN census. Let me know if I can assist you further. Judy M. Cothron.
