Have you made any progress in determining who Sally (Owen) Lee's parents were?Her husband, John Lee, was the brother of my 4th great-grandmother, Nancy Lee, who married Elijah Harris in Halifax Co. in 1794.When Banister Owen married Elizabeth Irby, John Lee was a witness, and Banister Owen was a witness to John Lee & Sally Owen's marriage, with Littleberry as the bondsman.
I have found Littleberry (aka Berry) Owen in the Halifax Co. personal property tax records in the 1780s, and he was consistently enumerated on the same date as Agnes Owen--his widowed mother, perhaps?There was also an Obediah Owen enumerated on the same date.It was Berry Owen, Sr. who bonded Banister Owen's marriage to Elizabeth Irby in 1805, so apparently there was also a Littleberry Owen, Jr.
