Yes, I've done quite a bit of research on the Pruitt/Pruett/ Prewitt line. My husband was the decendent of Delbert (his father) George His grf and Oscar his ggf on back to Alexander, Rubin & John or Joseph. I'm not sure which one of the last two was his ancestor. In any event, we can share if you'd like to. His line came from Tazewell Co. Va. into Lawrence Co. & Morgan Co. Ky. and then some moved into Wayne Co. WV. where most of them evidently settled.

Do you have dates for the people you mention in your message? Is so, I would certainly appreciate your sharing. I have always had difficulty keeping this Hall family straight. I think the reason is that the information came to me from different sources who were quoting other sources, and many of the names were similar. Larry

Lola, This Thomas in question was b. ca 1789, Russell Co, VA, the son of George McCoy, b. ca 1751 in GA, d. 1809 Russell Co., and Mary Crump (or Brumfield). I’m not a McCoy researcher, but the following children are proven by court records: i. GEORGE3 MCCOY, b. 1783; d. Aft. 1860. ii. ROBERT MCCOY, b. 1784. iii. BRUMFIELD MCCOY, b. 1785; d. May 04, 1857, Russell Co., Va.. iv. JAMES MCCOY, b. 1786. v. JOHN MCCOY, b. 1788. vi. THOMAS MCCOY, b. 1789, Russell Co., Va.; d. June 28, 1870. vii. MARY ELIZABETH MCCOY, b. 1790; d. Aft. 1850, Russell County, Va.. viii. REUBEN MCCOY, b. 1791. Note that the son John, b. ca 1788, would fit time-wise as the father of your Thomas, b. ca 1825, but he never married and lived with brother Thomas. There may be a connection though through one of the sons, as several descendants went to Wayne Co, WV.
