Hi Judy:
I have a little on Zilly but probably no more than you.My folks tie with the Haman clan several times.Harriet married Fredrick Rooks and of course Alva Pinkney married Mary Rooks.Then Flora Ann, the daughter of Williamson and Susen E.(Sukey) Mercer Haman married Jasper Smith.Jasper was the father of Martha Ann Smith who married John Jackson Rooks, a son of Isaac and Eliza Sumner Rooks. John J. & Martha Ann Smith Rooks are my great grand parents.George Jackson & Mae Bell Goodwin Rooks are my grand parents.I've dug up info on most of these folks but especially on the Mercer family.This went well only because I live up here in Hoke County which neighbors Robeson, Cumberland, and Sampson Counties where these folks lived and owned Plantations.As I said earlier, I may not have anything for you but ask me a question and I'll take a shot at it anyway.
