The first two links are to pages that are informative and very well
done. The third link is a great find, if any of your ancestors happened
to belong to a Primitive Baptist Church. Not all states are online, but
the ones that are have a lot of detailed information. I found an entire
extended family of one of my Illinois lines there!
I hope they're helpful to some of you. Please forgive crossposts.
