Hi, Am searching for a MRS MARY WATSON who married WILLIAM LEECH. He was born about 1775 in Spartenburg, South Carolina. They had eight children. The first was EPHRAIM MADISON LEECH born in 1800 in Livingston County Kentucky. Could she have been a Martha? Can anyone identify her? Thanks for providing this site.

I am searching for the family of my 4th great grandmother-Nancy Watson Fields. She married in 1828 in Calloway (now Marshall) County to John Fields. Proof of her age was James Watson, because she she was 19 when she married. Also in Calloway Co., KY in 1840, a Mary Ann Watson married Ezekiel Beavers. Proof of Mary Ann's age was also James Watson. There was also a Lurany Watson in the area. The reason I believe that all these people could be related is: Nancy and Mary Ann were both in Calloway Co., KY at one time. Also, all three ladies, Lurany, Nancy, and Mary Ann, had the name Lurany connected to them. Of course, one was named Lurany, but both Nancy and Mary Ann had daughters named Lurany. If there is anyone out there that recognizes these names, PLEASE let me know. Dwight Beaver, if you are still subscribed to the list-PLEASE contact me. Thank you, Justin Richardson ===== Justin L.
