I Am Digging It

Digging into our family history creates deep connections. Genealogy is about finding our roots. As we research our family tree, we realize how our lives are intertwined with the history of our great nation. My family history includes the Quillin family, the Ewing family, the McNair family, the Jones family, the Bridges family, the King family and the Hulsey family. It is an honor to share their family stories. Search each family name by clicking the labels on the bottom right side.

Teague Quillin V Marries His 3rd Wife Jane Collyer

I found a website that stirred my interest because it had a third wife for Teague. I began to research and I believe it is true. Many family trees have his last two children as Mary Sanders' children, but I found a distant cousin, Jenny Kidd, who is a descendant through his 3rd wife. Jenny has actually gone to the area and the courthouse and documented this marriage.

I would like to thank the Potter Family for their diligent research, as I would never have known this. At the bottom of the second screenshot, a name was cut off. in the 1850 Scott Co VA Census there was a James Palmore age 14 listed with John and Rebecca Quillen.
