I am trying to determine who the parents of Nancy Humphreys Gragg are.I have found her listed as the daughter of William & Susannah Webb Humphreys and others with Owen and Mary Lea Humphreys.I do know there were 2 Nany Humphreys who married in Burke County.I believe our Nancy Humphreys Gragg was married circa 1814.

I am a daughter of a daughter and so on.I am taking the DNA test and hope to find other women or men who are willing to take the mtDNa from Mary Lea's line and Susanna Webb's line and maybe we can solve this problem.Do you have parents listed for Nancy?
Take Care,
Sandy
