JUst thought I would update a request in case any new researchers are out there looking for same info I am. I am looking for info on my GG grandfather (William?) McKinney "Kinney" JOhnson b. 1798 in Surry Co., NC and d. between 1860-70 in Murray CO., Ga. HIs spouse was Sarah (McKinney?) b. @1805 in Surry CO., She may have been a sister to Rosanna/Rosamond McKinney who m. Churchill B. Tucker in about 1839 in Surry Co. and later went to Murray Co., Ga. also. In 1835 "Kinney" Johnson owned land on Beaverdam in Capt. Mears district. Owning land bordering his property was the following JOHNSON males whom I "suspect" may have been kin to him..KIMBRO (sp: Quinnett Pace), DRURY, and either CHARLES. or CALVIN. NOTE: I found a Wm. JOhnson m. Sarah McKinney in 1792 in Brunswick Co., VA. NOt sure if they could be parents of my "Kinney" I suspect it maybe possible since my "Kinney" has same first name of this William and also maiden name of Sarah(McKinney). The name JAMES is very prominent down thru the male JOHNSON line including me. My dad have 6 brothers and each of them named a son JAMES, not sure if this coincidental or havd some connection to the JOHNSON ancestry. any help would be appreciated. I have been working on this for over ten years now along with several other distant cousins with no luck. PLan to attend family reunion in sept. and would love to have new info to pass on. jcjohnson/Virginia
