Hi Caroline and Suzanne - Thanks to you and to
Suzanne. At this point, any information is valuable.
Suzanne - I have never been able to stay in the court
house long enough to find all those references,
thank you so much for your time.
Caroline, I would be interested in more information
about Matthew Gilmore's witness to the will of
Joseph Teas. I had always believed Joseph moved
to Lawrence County, but he may have died in
Dickson County and his children went to Lawrence
Co????
My Anna Gilmore was born in Virginia about 1786.
THUS, she could not be a daughter of the James
who was married in 1801. WHO WAS SHE???
Thanks to everybody in this group who are so willing
to share their time and information. I appreciate
everyone of you.
Susy
