Hi Nancy:
When I get some FREE (lol/don't hold your breath on that) time, I will look up the history of the names you mentioned. Keep in mind that during slavery times, alot of names were created for "personal" reasons - documentation was not kept, but it was passed from generation to generation.
My grandma will be 102 this December, so I will try to get word to her to see if she has any info for you. The generations like myself did not really get into that type info, but I am sure her generation did. She still lives in the same house she was married in at age 21 and refuses to move (lol). But alot of family go back to check on her and I will send a letter with the next one that is going. The last time I saw her was when my only child now 23 was born. She came up to see us. That was the last time I saw her due to her not being able to travel and me not being able to afford to travel (lol). But my daughter has been back a few times.
Thanks for posting - always GREAT hearing from you!
