McKINNEY, THOMAS -
I am a primary researcher on the McKinney family of Mercer and Wyoming Counties. I would most appreciate any help you can give me on locating researchers who might have an interest in the descendants of Samuel Thomas (married Juliet McKinney) and Jesse Thomas (married Rachel McKinney). Juliet and Rachel were daughters of Joseph Floyd McKinney (1770-1850+), and I am attempting to put together a complete genealogy of his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Thanks for your help.
