Genealogy

Some of the many Surnames that we are researching: PRICE, DOVER, ELLINGTON, YOUNGBLOOD, STANLEY, PETTIT, GODWIN, KERR, MCPHERSON, PAULK, BALLARD and the list is growing.

Many of our ancestors came to West Tennessee from Virginia, South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi. The Price's came from Alabama to Lauderdale County, TN. The Dover's came from Alabama to Mississippi and then to Shelby County, TN. The Ellington's came from Virginia to northwestern Madison County, TN which later became Crockett Co. My branch of the Ellington family ended up in Haywood Co. TN. The Young blood's were in Arkansas, Mississippi and Shelby County, TN.
