Thanks for commenting. <br /><br />Getting back to ancestors from the 1700s in NC and TN was a bit of a hike, and digging further will be quite an exercise in following tiny crumbs of clues. This is in my ex-husband's lines, and I won't be working further on it for some time, as I am trying to do more in-depth research in my mother's lines in order to write up a history for our kids. <br /><br />Hopefully, in another year or so... :) <br /><br />Celia Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04096301290962083820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1022882827649802537.post-21914969118979888802016-04-14T10:16:49.112-07:002016-04-14T10:16:49.112-07:00I have very recently begun researching my mother&#...I have very recently begun researching my mother's ancestry, and came across a previously compiled tree that links my line back to Whitehead and Elizabeth Joyner. Have you found anything new about either in the last couple of years?<br /><br />Rachelle W.<br />IllinoisAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00775383573372362555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1022882827649802537.post-13640284118882579332015-08-31T09:19:48.984-07:002015-08-31T09:19:48.984-07:00Dflora - I found details from copies of notes/will...Dflora - I found details from copies of notes/wills/records that a Rose Parks had posted which she called "Bright, Herring Family History". <br />Unfortunately this was early in my genealogy and I wasn't as careful as I ought to have been, and didn't do a proper source and didn't follow up with searching further. <br />I'm sorry to say that I have no further details of marriages, although it is quite clear that the Taylor, Herring, and Joyner/Joiner families were all known to each other, showing up on each others documents, living in the same areas. <br />I won't be doing further research on this line for a while, as I'm working on another section, and being more thorough and detailed with my sources. The Genealogy Do-Over by Thomas MacEntee inspired me to clean up my tree, starting this past January! It will take at least another year to complete the clean up however! Perhaps by then, I could do another post on Lucy TAYLOR's grandparents, if I am able to find more! <br />Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
