Small world - I've got tons of Greene Co., TN ancestors, too! I have copies of "Historic Greene County, Tennessee and Its People: 1783-1992" and "Greene County, Tennessee Cemeteries," if you need any look-ups.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I have an ancester born about 1800 named James Rogers Mitchell. Do you have any information on James Rogers's decendants?
