Was he the father of James Arton Hopkins? We only have oral family
history to go on.
Who were his parents? His father may have been John Petty from Bradley
County, Tennessee.
Jesse and Rebecca were living in Murray and Lumpkin Counties in Georgia
from 1840-1860. Nothing is known about either of their parents and
Rebecca maiden name is not even known.
William Taylor (b. 1798-1805 in VA or NC, d. 1880-1886 in KY) - Taylor Line
Many researchers say that William's father was Rev. War soldier William
Taylor and his wife, Jean Guffey but where is the proof?
Her maiden name may have been McFarland. Her daughter's death
certificate lists the name as McFardan but I have no clues about her
parents.
Her father was John Lavender of Lincoln County, Kentucky but nothing
more is known about his and I have no leads about her mother.
Who was his wife and the mother of John "War Jack" Howard? Most
researchers say she was a Cherokee Indian named Lettie Durham but I
haven't found anything to prove that. Thomas' parents are also unknown.
Delinda ? (wife of James Weeks and Elisha Shaw; d. abt. 1834) - Hankins Line
Her maiden name and the names of her parents are unknown.
