KEATHLEY/KETHLEY/KEITHLEY/KITLEY, all spellings. Anyone researching Mark, Richard or Jonathan who were in Duplin Co., NC at least 1786-1826? Jonathan Kitley was in the Whiteheads Dist. of Duplin in 1786 Cen. All three were in 1790 Cen. In 1814 Richard mar. Polly BRANCH. Mark mar. Elizabeth PIPKIN in 1826. Also looking for info. about ancestors with surname WHITFIELD/WITFIELD. William WHITFIELD mar. Sally JOHNSTON in Duplin Co., NC in 1809. Were these families related to John KETHLEY, JR. who mar. Elizabeth WHITFIELD in Scott Co., Ms. a bit later (perhaps abt.1840)? Our lines seem to have migrated from NC>TN>Bourbon Co.KY>Ala>LA>MS (not necessarily in that exact order). Would like to correspond with others researching these families and will gladly exchange info.

Hello! My name is Robin Seabrook and I am trying to track some family roots. I have been told that my great-grandfather, Percey WEEKS, his family is from Faison, NC. I believe it is in this county. I am trying verify and find any information on the Weeks family. His father's name we think was William Gary WEEKS. He fought in the Civil War so I have been told. Any assistance you could lend would be helpful. Thank you.
