Nyman Ferrill Genealogy
http://genealogy.rikkinyman.com/ferrill/index.htm
Our branch of the Ferrill family genealogy is well documented in some places and sketchy in others. The Ferrill name comes from Ireland according to one researcher. For more information on the Ferrill/Ferrell connection, refer to Caulean Vesey's website. She goes into detail with the genealogy of Enoch Ferrell. She conjectures that Thomas S.

Nyman Ferrill Genealogy: Vaught Family
http://genealogy.rikkinyman.com/vaught/index.htm
10/05) My claim on the Vaught family is conjectural. It's a good probability, but without any documentary evidence to support it, I can't state it as a fact. Nevertheless, it looks better to be than any alternative. Eventually, something may turn up to prove who Joseph Rhoads married. Elizabeth is named in Joseph Rhoads' will, which was proved in 1799. Her maiden name is not given. I don't know the year she was born or the exact year she died and I have no record of the date of marriage. In the Vaught fa...
