I am researching the surname HENDRICK(S) and have run into a few road
blocks.
The Line ends with John Hendrick(s) of Wythe in 1810. I am trying to
construct the entire family in the Wythe, Bland, Pulaski, Carrol, Grayson
and Mercer Co area in hopes that clues may jump up out of the data. It
did happen once on another line.
I have searched in Wythe and in Mercer. The rest are a mystery. If you
have any information on the HENDRICK(S) surname in Bland CO pre 1920,
please email me.
I will use this information to plan a trip later this year to VA and WV.
Thank you.

My ggGrandparents were William Cloyd FARRIS & Nancy E. ALLISON both
born in Wythe Co. They were married in Pulaski Co. 9 August 1859.
Nancy E. ALLISON was the d/o Francis ALLISON & Martha
"Patsey" HOWARD.
William Cloyd FARRIS was b.21 May 1834 Wythe Co. His marriage license
lists his parents as Jno. & Martha FARRIS. Martha was an ALLISON,
sister to the above Francis ALLISON. As to the father of William Cloyd
Farris, family genealogies state that the father of William was James
FARRIS of South Carolina. That he fought in the war with Mexico in 1844
and never returned.
William Farris is on the 1850 Pulaski Census with his Mother, Martha, and
siblings. He is also on the 1860 Census with his new wife Nancy.
There were not any FARRIS'S listed in the 1840 Census for Pulaski.
Need information on the father of William Cloyd FARRIS.
Thank you for any help.
