I too have traced my Hairston family to the Cooleemee plantation.I don't have all the information in front of me right now but wanted to share some with you and see what line you have.
As far back as I have gotten is my ggg-mother. (I think that's enought greats) Anyway it goes as follows:
Matilda Hairston (Mu) Henry Co. VA
She had three sons that I know of:
David
Lewis
Robert (Mu) b.1845married Catherine Stewaret b.1846
Robert and Catherine had 7 children
Aliceb.1868
Maryb.n/a
Maggieb.1873
Robertb.n/a
Gentryb.1879
Callieb.1882
Mattie Bell b. 1887
My line comes through Mattie Bell.
In the book 'Cooleemee Plantation and It's People' it shows that Matilda was at one plantaion, Brier Creek I think, before going to Cooleemee.
How far have you gotten with your line?Maybe there is a cross road somewhere.Even so it's nice to see the progress others make.
Thanks,
F~
