Name of Ancestor: Kennedy/King
Query: Hello, I am trying to find out more about which Kennedy or King or other related families. My Vance's were in TN as early as ca 1800. They lived in Knoxville TN, Strawberry Plains TN and surrounding areas. They married into Kennedy, King, Cannon, Watt, Walker, Wilmuth, Steele, etc. My gr gr gr grandad James Vance Jr married Margaret King. I do not know her parents. My gr gr gr gr grandad Jame Vance Sr married Mary Kennedy. I do not know her parents but I think she may have been the daughter of a Rev Kennedy. Many of these families drifted to OR, MO, KY, TX, OH, etc. If you have information that would help me figure out my Kennedy/ King relationship I would appreciate it. I will trade what I have if you think it would be of interest to you. Thank you, Cheryl Walters Parr clparr@sbcglobal.net
