Nyla ======================= Subj: Jesse CORN and Elizabeth BURNETT Date: 97-09-23 20:19:32 EDT From: N4JED In compilation 215 there was a bit of discussion of two of my direct ancestors - Jesse Corn, Jr. and Elizabeth Burnett that had info new to me I would like to know more about. Specifically, there is mention of these people and their family moving to Franklin Co., Tennessee. I would like to know more about that move or the source of the information as I do not see it easily fitting into the family data I have.
