Thank You Alice,
I do remember seeing something somewhere about sending in info for first
families, but as I recall they had to be in Tenn by 1796 (I believe) ? and
you had to prove this ..I know ours ROACH's came a little later than
that...and our Owens not until ca: 1835-7 unless they are related to the
earlier ones below, have never seen any evidence of this though...Thanks,
Sharon
