HI, John Thomas -- welcome to Geni.

I'm sure there may be some folks who can help you fix mistakes this branch of the Tree.

As you reference Geni profiles with corrections, it is helpful if you copy the associated URL for the profiles and paste them into your message so that the correct profiles are unambiguous.

Regarding your documented history ... is it something that you can upload relevant pages as "Sources" to validate the information about each the appropriate profiles? Something you could scan or photograph? See the "Sources" tab on the Geni profiles as a starting point for uploading documents. Note that if you upload a Source which is relevant to more than one person (profile) you don't have to upload it a second time -- the same Source document can be used to 'cite' facts for any number of people (profiles).

Anything you can contribute to making the "Big Tree" better is wonderful!

Here is my research: John Thomas parents Pherrell Rogers Thomas and Christine Sturdivant His parents Edward Willis Thomas and Lucille Vincent Rogers and His parents Dorsey Brown Thomas and Lucy Jane Robertson and His parents Battle Robertson and Martha Willis and Her parents Abel Willis and Sarah "Jane" Fleming and His parents John Willis and unknown since he could have been married twice. Here are the dates for the last group: Battle Robertson (12/18/1801 Wake County North Carolina- 5/24/1848 Madison County Tennessee and Martha Willis (1805-1837) married 9/29/1830 9n Madison County Tennessee. Abel Willis (10/12/1776 Mecklenberg Virginia- 10/2/1873 Madison County Tennessee) Sarah "Sally" Fleming unknow dates her parents were John Fleming (1740-10/12/1794) and Jane Hord (??-7/2/1820). John Willis (1740 Mecklenburg County Virginia- 1816 Surry County North Carolina). he may have been married twice but without the will this is unknown. His father may have been a John Willis but his connection to any family is not proven at this time. I have all the collateral lines documented several to England. The connections are Hord, Chiles, Fleming,Barham, Robertson, and Thomas. John Thomas

James Martin (8/25/1699- 1775) married about 1718 Elizabeth Crawford (1699-1762) Child Sarah "Sally" Martin (1720-1793) married William Terrell Lewis (1718-1802) and they had Elizabeth Lewis(1740-$/23/1818) married about 1758 John Benge (Trader John), and then John Fielder, Susannah Lewis (1742-1792) married about 1760 Thomas Benge, Ann Lewis (1744-1837) married John McConnell about 1740, Mary Jane Lewis (1747-1768) married about 1743 JOHN WILLIS, William Terrell Lewis Jr. (1749-1756), James Martin Lewis (1753-?? childhood), Micjah Lewis (1757-2/28/1781 at Battle of Guilford Courthouse North Carolina), William Terrell Lewis (1757-1808)married about 1783 Mary Hipkins, Joel Lewis (8/28/1760-11/22/1816) married Mirman Eastham about 1762, James Lewis (5/07/1786-4/02/1822) married 3/29/1799 Mary Boswell Herndon. This not a verifed connection at this time but with further research I will determine its accuracy.

Hello. My mom's family is from the Mecklenberg County area...and I'm trying to locate anyone with information on our families. My mom passed, and her fam didn't talk to her, so I'm missing tons of info.
My mom was related to the Whitby, Lambert, Malone, and Garrison families. Anyone that can pass anything along, please contact me.
