Do we know that all three sons went to Alabama. ? and do we know there is
definitely no connection to the
John Pace Of Middlesex Group. ? Is the DNA different.?
The DNA from my family ties us to John of Middlesex. , However, My
grgrandfather was born in 1809.
No documention of his birth but assumed to be in Virginia.There was a Fanny
Cosby living with my family in 1900
who was born in Alabama. I believe the census shows her name to be Louisa J.
Cosby. ,but the married her husband
,Edwin N.Cosby , a widower from Louisa county, va after her return from
Alabama. We think she may have been
born to a Mr. Lane and Eliza Flanagan who left Va , went to Alabama and
returned. She was supposed to be
Part Cherokee.
My mother always told me the story of three brothers from Wales who came to
the U.S, one of which was a ancestor.
Who Might that be?? is the question that keeps coming up.?
