Marlene, Not all of Geroge and Jemima's children have been identified (that I know of). And, in his will he says that he wants his TWO younger children (Lieu/Lew/Lue and Mary "Polly") to be made equal to his older children. He doesn't name these older children. But, this suggests that Jemima was not a first wife. It also suggests that there was property or estate settled on elder children. Hopefully, someone will locate something of this nature. There are so many George Tuckers in this general region of NC that they are hard to differentiate. Maybe someone on list will have some information. Thanks for your response. There was a James Tucker who migrated from Rowan to Jefferson Co. TN in 1803. Is this your James?
