I am descended from the Thomas Preston Leslie family from Monroe Co (Jalapa), TN that migrated to Hamilton County, Il in 1851. I know the Leslie's were related to the Smiths through marriage but am not quite sure of the exact connection. I have some old letters from 1881 that mentions the Smith family. I will pull them out and post the information. I have been in touch with a Smith descendent living in Oregon where some of the Smiths migrated to - this particular Smith prospered enormously and the family still lives off a trust he funded prior to 1900. I think he started growing wheat and decided to buy and sell farm implements and did very well. I'll have to do some digging to get the details, if you think it might be related to the Smiths you're researching. Other families mentioned from Monroe County are Shadden, Williams (G.W.), Edington and a few others I can't recall just now.

Surnames: Parker, Burke, Daughtry, Brannen, Williams, Dutton, Jones, Wells, Wilson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/RgB.2ACE/211 Message Board Post: I am looking for the family of my husband's 2great-grandfather Andrew L Miller b 3-09-1809 Tn or Va. He was said to be from Sweetwater Tn. He moved to Screven Co Ga where he died on 8-27-1865. Documents in Screven show that he had a brother Drury b 1822 Tn who lived in Pickens Co Al (married Julia Long). He had another brother William b 1811 Tn who also lived in Screven Co Ga, died 1873, and is buried next to Andrew in the Cornelius Burke cemetery. William was a Mason. Our research has shown that Andrew was married to Priscilla Harris b 1816, daughter of George C Harris and Sarah McCray of Madisonville Tn. The family was in Wilkinson Co Ga in the 1850 census, where he was listed as as railroad manager. There were 11 children: John L or Daniel, Magdalena, Drury, Eglentine, Eliza J (married Howell), George W, Mary, William Thomas, Andrew J, James P, and David S Miller. Some grandchildren's names that might be relevant are Harmon, Josephine, Nunn, Julian Sinclair, Clifford, Osa. I am looking for any information that might help determine who the parents of Andrew, William, and Drury might be. There is strong indication of a Parker tie. We would greatly appreciate any information on Millers in Monroe Co, or Harris family ties, anything that might give us further information.
