I think I found a land record also (however, can't put my finger on it right now) between George Smith and Williamson children (Kezia Thomas married a James Williamson and she was a widow when she married George Smith after her sister Edith died). I don't think I can send an attachment on this list but if you want the transcripted land record which mentions Evan Thomas and his wife Rebecca let me know. I have never been able to find out where Daniel died...do you know? When George Smith dies, he leaves his land to six children. I have only found land records for four of them so far....Daniel, Benjamin, Samuel, and Margaret. I think another researcher and myself have figured out the 17 children and which ones belonged to which couple. I know that Benjamin and Daniel went ! to Ohio but wasn't aware that Samuel went. I thought he went to Ilinois instead. Kay Gavin Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
