I'm tracing a DNA match on Ancestry who has Mary Terrell and Elizabeth Augustus Williams in their tree. I'm guessing I connect to them on the Terrell lines that are direct for me, but I can't make the connections, as their tree doesn't go any further back and the info here on Geni is confusing.
I say confusing because Mary is listed as the daughter of Philemon Terrell and Mary Elizabeth Andress and has the info that lines up with the Philemon I have in my tree who was married to Elizabeth Andrews. I have seen Andress and Andrews referring to the same family. However, their daughter Mary wasn't married to James Augustus WIlliams, unless she was married twice. This is her FInd-a-Grave page where she was married to Reason Franklin Swilley.

There are several Philemon Terrells, so I'm wondering if the two Marys have gotten confused and this one is connected to the wrong parents.
Another tree on Ancesty has the parents of the Mary Terrell who was married to James Augustus WIlliams as:
Father:
Charles Terrell
B:Aug 3 1748 Caroline County, Virginia
D:1828 Caroline County, Virginia
Mother:
Nancy Ann Tyler
B:1749 Caroline, Virginia
D:1805
The dates and geography here on Geni are for the Mary (Terrell) Swilley. The info on Ancestry for Mary (Terrell) Williams only gives her date of birth as B:ABT 1776 and nothing else.
