Need to unlock Broadnax

The Broadnax family keeps coming up in my research on the MACLIN, TAYLOR, and LUNDIE families. For example, Emily Harriet Broadnax (1810-1883)m . James Maclin Lundie (1805 - ?), my 2nd cousin 5 times removed through ancestors Capt. John Maclin Sr. and Amy Cook. More than one internet record shows Emily Broadnax also married Henry Lewis and Lewis Lewis (in Louisiana) and, though I can't find the connection, I suspect that I am related to the two Louis' through the Taylor line. Who was this Emily Broadnax?

Also, on the message board someone mentioned Elizabeth Power Broadnax, also of VA, whose descendant Richard Woolfolk married Sarah Taylor in Nov 1792. Sarah Taylor would be my 3rd cousin 5 times removed. Our common ancestor is James Taylor Sr. Was Elizabeth Power Broadnax related to Emily Broadnax, mentioned above?

ALSO, Florence Broadnax (1849 - ?) of Fayette County, TN, Daughter of R.T. Broadnax (likely from VA) and Emily ?, Married Dr. James N. Maclin, Sr. (1842- ?) in Haywood, Co. TN on 24 May 1869. Dr. James Maclin would have been my 2nd great grand uncle through Dr. James Bullock Maclin and Lucy Lyne Taylor, who is related to the above Sarah Taylor (3rd cousins). Who were Florence and R.T. Broadnax, and how are they connected to the Broadnax families above?

ALSO, Dr. James N. Maclin's SISTER, Eliza Springer Maclin (1845 - ?) m. William F. Broadnax on 15 May 1865. I have no idea WHO he was.

Help?

I believe the Maclin, Taylor, Lewis, Broadnax, and Lundie families all knew each other in VA--when the Maclins moved to Haywood Co. TN in the 1810's and 1820's, Taylors and Lewises preceeded and followed them and the families stayed connected. Could the same be true for the Broadnaxes?
