I am related to many of the early settlers of East Tennessee, especially pioneer families who settled in Washington, Cocke, Hamblen, and Jefferson counties.

My focus over the past 40 years has been on the Bayless family, although my genealogy travels have touched on many more. I have also contributed information for several Oregon ancestors.

I am always interested in working with other researchers and would be happy to share information.
