Migration to/from Overton County

Contributed by Victor Nyle Harris

From Va or SC to Overton County, then to Fayette County, Illinois. Seemed to be several HARRIS who moved to Illinois within a few years. I am seeking info on a William HARRIS b.cir.1795. He also had a brother David HARRIS b.cir. 1796. Both went to what became Fayette County, Ill.
