Melvin, thanks for your reply.I have limited info on our John meeks.Family stories has our line from SC.date of birth around 1784.This John Meeks first wife was Elizabeth? first child (Thomas) was born in Tenn,in the Duck Creek Area in 1802-4.The second child(Polly) was born in Mo 1806 in St.Geneieve Parrish.Five more children followed,William,Elias,Iseral,Britton,and Joseph.Apparently Elizabeth died and thier was a second,or mabey a third marriage.
Charolette,thinks this John Meeks is from the William,Athe Family, but nothing has been documented about him.Would this migration pattern,follow the Ohio River?I know there was a line of Meeks in Mo.this early,and they returned to Kentucky.Any though on this John Meeks,and who he came from ?? A cousin told me recently for all the info we have been able to find he might as well have come from the cabbage patch.We have looked under a lot of leaves. Thanks for your thoughts.
