Is anyone out there familiar with Simon William Norris, born 1776 in Ashe County, NC? I have as his wife one Theresa Avery born 1782 NC. Is anyone familiar with this couple, or this line? I have that they left NC for TN about 1815, settling in White County. Other researchers have as Simon's wife, or wives, Eunice Shinn, and Hanna Case. There is a completely different set of children in each case. For instance, this is what I have for Simon William and Theresa Avery Norris: David, born 1800 York District SC James 1803 Ashe County NC Avery Simon born 1806 also Ashe Co. NC Theresa born 1809 Ananias born 1813 Amy born 1815 William born 1816 White County, TN John Francis born 1818 White County, TN I'm not completely sure of the list of children for Simon William and Eunice and Hanna; I think this is close: John 1806 NC Samuel 1808 Levi 1812 Joel 1818 David 1823 Rebecca 1813 Anna 1810 Myra 1816 Jonathan 1820 (I wonder if John and Jonathan are the same person; I have each of them married to Rachel Sands at one time or another. She was born 1802 NC. I like the list of children's names for Simon William and Theresa becasue they seem to reflect the parents names, and they just seem to fit. What do some of you think? Also, could there be a Simon William and a William S. Norris of same family? I have seen it listed that way once, with the wives of William S. being Eunice Shinn and Hanna Case. William S. being born 4 Feb 1772 Wilkes, NC. Sure would like some help here, Sue
