My grandfather was named Herrick Tasoni Wilburn and he was from Kennett, Mo. He died a couple years ago and is buried there. I'd really be interested in comparing notes as I have very little info on my Wilburn line. The Kennett connection is really intriguing. However, due to a computer upgrade I won't have access to my files for a few days so I'll be in touch after I get my stuff back.
