    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Probate: 8 Sep 1838, Montgomery, Georgia, USA

    Notes:

    I am still trying to connect to the correct McInnis family for Ann McInnis, 1st wife of my ancestor Mark Branch Wilkes. I suspect I am looking for a connection in the area of Robeson or Cumberland County, North Carolina, but I don't yet have a primary document to prove this theory. Mark Branch Wilkes' brother, Elias Wilkes (Also one of my ancestors), married Sarah Hughes - daughter of Duncan Hughes and Mary Morrison. Mary Morrison was the daughter of Norman and Christian Morrison of Robeson County, NC. Norman Morrison's will was probated in May 1829. The gravestone of Norman Morrison's son John states that he was born on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, and that is the only clue to the origins of this Morrison family that I currently have. These Wilkes, Morrison, and Hughes families all lived in the northwest corner of Robeson County. McInnis is also a name seen often in this same area. Members of the Wilkes family and Hughes family migrated to Montgomery County, GA before 1840. SOURCE: Mary Raye Kiser Casper 26 Jan 2006

    Duncan married Mary Morrison about 1790 in Robeson, North Carolina, USA. Mary (daughter of Norman Morrison and Christian Gillis) was born in 1779 in Scotland; died in Dec 1849 in Montgomery, Georgia, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
