Neighbor/Nabors--For Jill
Hi Jill,
Surprise!!! Your E-mail kept returning, so, knowing you regularly check GenForum thought I would answer you here.Will go down the list of questions by numbers.
#1-Voisin-is french for neighbor.
#2-Be sure & check dates on "old Abe & Rebecca"--He b 1684-She b 1693.We have learned they are not always the parents.Lots of holes & gaps to be filled.
#3-Drucilla Nabors McNeer was "not" mar to James Wm. McNeer as once thought but to John H. McNeer.They both died in Holmes Co. Miss.He d ca 1855--she after 1880.Census verifies this.Obviously, they did not go to Texas as some thought.Childern are correct.Dau. Sarah mar B.H. Nabors, son of Zedekiah Nabors of Amite Co. Miss.
#4-John W. Nabors--Shelby Co.Ala. (brt. to Drucilla) mar Elizabeth "Betsy" McNair.Note her last name is McNair & not McNeer--different name & family.Childern correct.
#5-The "Jacob Francis" we are looking at is a combination of Francis Neighbors & Jacob Nabors.We have Francis' history--wife Sally Wheat--Father--Benjamin,then, we have our Jacob's death date & his 6 childern plus 2 people who do not belong to him.Check your Whitman Neal Bk. pg.164 & your Tom Nabors Bk. Vol 2--pg.68 to verify Francis data.Note he is listed as Francis & not "Jacob Francis".
It is now up to you to weigh the "pros & cons"!!!Good to hear from you, been awhile, keep in touch & happy hunting!!!
Billie
