HELLO
I am related to the William and Martin Bailey's that are related to Mary Bailey, and Mark Fain that you have been corresponding with.I have seen this Martin Bailey in Mississippi, and researched this family to try to find a common link.At this time, we cannot find a link.What we know so far is that these two brothers joined the Revolutionary Army in Pittslyvania Co. VA. in 1777, they fought for 5 years then married sisters in Surry Co. VA.When the war was over in the early 1780's the bought property in Edgefield Co. S.C. stayed there till abt. 1817 then moved to Monroe Co. KY.Both William and Martin died in KY.So far, circa 1850, we have only tracked their children to Indiana, Arkansas and Missouri.A number of Bailey's ended up in Texas, we cannot find any of ours there.Our exodus from KY came around 1850 give or take 3 years.Several of our kin stayed there.But so far no record of any moving to Ms.Sorry.
