Hi Jackie,
I just read your query and thought I may be able to shed some light on the relationship between Isaac Kendall and Nathan Norris.
According to some transcripts of documents relating to Johnston Co., NC;Nathan Norris was appointed as guardian to the children of William Pritchett, Sr., upon his death.
These children were named as follows:
<28 November 1786>
JAMES PRITCHETT: {"Johnston County, North Carolina County Court Minutes1778 - 1786"Book III}Transcribed and Reproduced by Weynette Parks Haun.Page 124; #331,Page 126; #334-42.
WILLIAM PRITCHETT:As above: Page 126; #334-42.
<1787>
MARY PRITCHETT & SARAH PRITCHETT:{"Johnston County, North CarolinaCounty Court Minutes1787 thru 1792"Book IV} Transcribed & Reproduced by Weynette Parks Haun.Page 3; #4.
These children (& a couple of others) are all named in the will of William Pritchett, Sr.
I descend from MARY PRITCHETT who married ISAAC KENDALL.
My theory is that Nancy Norris (widow of Nathan) was a close friend of the Pritchett/Kendall family and that Isaac looked after Nancy as a favor, because her husband, Nathan had been guardian at one time to Mary Pritchett, (Isaac's) wife.
Hope this helps!
Kim
P.S.Would you happen to know the parents of Isaac?
