You are great - you are putting things together.The reason I made this post about Benjamin Martin is that he was connected to Thomas Thurmond of Wilkes Co NC.I writing this off the top of my head, but I think Thomas Thurmond was from the Bedford/Halifax/Pittsylvannia Cos VA area.That would connect with what you have on Benjamin Martin.So, we would have the Martins, Wilburns and Thurmonds appearing to have migrated "together"?Thomas Thurmond's family migrated to GA and middle TN.
Do you know if Edward Wilburn of Surry NC was related to the Wm Wilburn listed in Wilkes Co NC Rev War records?He was listed on the same sheet as Thomas Thurmond as providing goods to the US army.Did the NC Wilburns migrate to GA?
Do you know where the Benjamin Martin family migrated to?A Martin family shows up in Cumberland Co KY along with Ned Wilburn.Any connection with the NC group?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
