Bingo! I have Herrings and Willie (Wylie, etc.) in Shelby County ( married each other), and Gentrys in Lee County MS. Not in Memphis, but in Arlington, a small town northeast of Memphis. Here's a brief rundown. Lewis Wylie (1813 - 1861, SC>TN) + Catherine Steele Wylie (1815-188?, SC>TN) son Harvey (1858-193?) + Persis Ann Herring son Alva Lewis Wylie + Sadie Porter Gentry son Dan Harvey Wylie + Joye Greer Eason daughter Susan Greer Wylie - me. Persis was the daughter of James Westbrook Herring and Susan Elizabeth Jones. Any interest in these lines?
