As a follow up on this posting, two members of the Marsee line have been part of the Massey DNA project and they bear a 34/34 matching with the descendents of Joseph Massey of Brunswick county Va. in 1761.
Help on a Joseph who may have gone to the Waxhaws with relatives during or just after the Rev. War andprior to his journey out west would be appreciated.

Many feel the family Marsee of E Tn., SE Ky. and SW Va. is really Massey with the double s of the Massey name being converted to what looked like an inverted f or r in the older spellings. Two sons of this family, a Joseph Jr. and a Rev. Thomas, were 21 by 1794 when they witnessed a will and signed a petition for the formation of Lee county, Va. which is by Cumberland Gap. Their father Joseph had voted apparently in Hawkins county, Tn. in 1790 but disappeared after his sons were established in Knox, Ky and Claiborne Tn. Does anyone have a Joseph who would match this time period and has been detached from the family? There was apparently no wife at all accounted for. Families they traveled with included Middleton, Turner, Chadwell. Any help in a 30 year search would be appreciated.
