NOTE from johnny long
thanks
one major question that want to resolve.
John Long, Sr. [Tobias Long's father] reportedly was married to Susannah Vannoy about 1773.
Susannah is the daughter of John Francis Vannoy and Susannah Baker Anderson.
She was born July 6, 1754 in the Potts Creek section of North Carolina.
This was in Rowan County, near the Yadkin River.
However, John Francis Vannoy and his family moved up the Yadkin River to Wilkes County, North Carolina in about 1772 when their home burned.
Of course, this Susannah Vannoy would be the sister to Andrew Vannoy who married Susannah Shepherd.
Although many Long and Vannoy Family researchers report that Susannah Vannoy is the wife of Tobias Long, cannot locate where this fact orginated?
Does anyone know where there is documentation {will, deed, family bible, family notes, family knowledge, etc...) to support this as being true?
Is there anyone who has this family knowledge?
Also, am not able to find the burial site for Tobias? Anyone know?
the wills for both John and Tobias; there are no clues for the name of the wife of John Long, Sr.
Also, there are no clues in any of the land deeds.
