Debbie,
I just wrote a nice reply to your posting, but my computer ate it. Now I'm out of time. The bottom line: get thee to the nearest archives and contort thyself over microfilm and copy machines. Be a "show me" kind of genealogist: don't take anyone else's word about your lineage. I'm afraid I cannot offer you any sort of response one way or another about any relationship between your Daniel and my Richard because you have no documentation other than "some website."
Twenty-five years ago, my father did the research on Richard, one musty courthouse at a time. I am just now looking at NC documentation but have found no more solid evidence for a link to Nash County than my father did. Even if we match a Drury Dean descendant Y-DNA-wise, unless we find the document that forms the link to a specific father, we won't know Richard's line backwards.
Conjecture is only conjecture, after all. Without the rock, you can't break the window. It took me over six years to find the evidence for my Georgia Mills line, but when I did, I lobbed a meteor and made a crater.
I wish I could offer more.
Sharon
