Hello, I am a descendant of James and William Kendall,jr, sons of William Kindel/Kendall, who d. 1777 in the Parish of St. Thomas in Orange Co. Va.Your Thomas was b. in 1777, Orange co. Va., he is the youngest child.After Wm., Kindel/Kendall's death the family migrated to Wilkes co. NC, and Thomas was the first to leave, being in Sumner co. Tn on the 1820 census.I have visited the Kendall Cem. in Coffee co. and made some pics of the graves there.Have been unable to locate Thomas' grave site, but believe it to be under a stack of field stonewithin the cem. enclosure.There is a house site located abt. 100 yds. from the cem. and on the Garrison Fork River just over the fence from I-24 near the Beech Grove community.I have seen some land sales that locates Thomas' land site as being where the cem. is located.I would be interested in exhanging what info I have with you.
