Yes, Vanetta, Nancy Willis was married to Jonathan Creech the son of Nancy Wells Tompkins Creech and J. Creech. This Jonathan and brother Ward migrated to Jackson Co Ky and then finaly settled in Wolfe Co KY, Nancy Spencer was the 2nd wife of Elijah Creech-proven by deed by heirs in Lee Co -Wm Spencer. The Elisha that married Lavina Kilborn was the son of Jonathan Creech and his 2nd wife Jane Blair-proven by the court case in White Co TN-re Heirs of Thomas Robinson. Elisha Creech that married Priscilla Gilbert and he was born ca 1816 was the son of Elijah Creech. Early Settlers is misleading especially on the Creech lines. The researcher that submitted this info did not carry his research far enough-stopped too soon to be accurate.
