Captain John Ezell, Sr.

There are changes that need to be made in all family trees that are based on old passed around family structures.

Family history has been recorded in a book which is called The Ezell family in America; descendants of George Ezell of old colonial Surry, Va., 1692-1961

Jeff Greer is beginning this work in July of 2022 and will updated this about section when I have completed this profile.
