Post Script.I found on Giles Co. Tn rootsweb an article submitted by Margaret Nolen Nichol and on page 1 of "The Dever Family of Giles County, Tennessee" under the children for Charles W. Dever, b c1760 in Virginia was listed as the fourth child: "Margaret Dever,a born 1809 in Giles, Tennessee.She married John MCcormick."This is the John McCormick for which I am searching.
I found information regarding Margaret Dever in this time frame who married a Simon Johnson.Could Margaret have been married twice? This Margaret is a sister of my direct ancestor, William S. Dever and his first wife, Sarah L. Angus.The record found was when Margaret's mother, Mary Dever, widow, left a slave servant named Isabella, to Margaret Johnson, wife of Simon Johnson in April,1839. Margaret would be my gg aunt.Also, if the Margare Nichol who submitted this article would be interested, I have additional information for Charles Dever, son of William S. Dever, born 24 Apr, 1832 in Giles Co. TN.She listed 5 of the 7 children in her article.Left off were two youngest daughters, Mary Louise (Mae) and Margaret E. (Maggie). Maggie is my grandmother.
