Hey Linda, I overlooked this info about Petella being listed in Perry County. Tax List of 1837. Your husband and I share the same family tree. I ve been looking in Decatur County because of him being listed in the Decatur county census. Elizabeth would be my GGGMother. I had been taking to a lady in Calif. who shares alot of the same info but alot more info. She told me about the Family Tree DNA which I did. Have you been able to find any more info regarding Petiller
I am a desendant of the Bogans in 1837 Tax list. James was my gggranfather. William or William Bogan sr was his father. I have reach a roadblock at this point. Do you have any information on the Bogans.. I did not know until today that Decatur county was formed from Perry. Thanks Richard Bogan
