Lee,
This is really strange.
My TERRY line went from Anson Co., NC to Choctaw Co., MS shortly after 1850.Actually it was just my gg grandfather who was Addison Gibson TERRY who married Sarah LEE in Choctaw or Montgomery Co., MS.
There were other relatives there like the JERNIGANs, though.His grandmother was Johannah JERNIGAN who married Champness TERRY in NC and lived in Rockingham, Anson/ Richmond Cos., NC.
The other strange thing is that you're descended from TERRY - MINTER line that was in Edgefield Co., SC.I have a really good friend from that line and we've been trying to make a connection.
Also, I had WILLIAMS ancestors in Anson Co., NC in my TERRY - GIBSON line.
Lastly, and completely unrelated, my grandmother FARMER was a WILLIAMS before she married.Even though she's a descendant of the TERRY - GIBSON - WILLIAMS line, her father was from a WILLIAMS line in Pike Co., MO (with his line from Nelson and Logan Cos., KY) and our FARMER line was from TN before going to TX.
