Hello Ed, Thank you for the info. Do you know the names of William Wilson and Sarah Friend's son William Friend Wilson's family,i.e. wife, children? I'm hoping that William Friend Wilson has a son Daniel, and they live in Barbour County WV. A William F. Wilson is living in Barbour Co. VA. He is on the 1850 census living two doors down from Daniel. 1850 Barbour Co Census (will split to form Upshur Co in 1851): Dan'l, age 26, Clerk, b. Ohio (Va is scratched out) Naomi, age 24, b. Va Fredk E, age 4 James L, age 2 I need to know what William Friend Wilson's wife's name was to see if she is on the Barbour Co. census. If I can't match names I have the wrong William F. Wilson.

Brenda, I have records of a Friend family around 1800 in Chesterfield County, VA. Descendents moved to what is now Pittsylvania County, VA (near Danville) and married into families that descended from Morgan and William Henderson Wilson of Henry County, VA. Others of the Henry County Wilson's appeared to have migrated west to TN. These families tended to relocate in groups of siblings or first cousins so we may be able to fill gaps in each others genealogy. Do you have any other Friend names besides Sarah? Other family names that maybe linked are Guthrie, Walke, Branch or Barker.
