Thanks for a great posting. Alexander, immigrant, is my line on down to the Lockes and
Tabbs. In cleaning up my databse, I found I had no parents listed for Mary Elizabeth
Pinkney. I went first, to see what GenForum had to say and this is what I found, posted
by Henry Cathey on December 7, 2001: "Michael: We cannot find any reference to
Pinkneys in the Cumberland Valley, Penn. or in Chester Co, Pa, New Castle County, DE. or
in Cecil County, MD. However, a record does show a Chris. Pinkney in Calvert County,
Maryland before 1672 and other Pinkneys farther north in Anne Arundel County and south of
the Severn River in 1705 through 1712. This appears to be near present day Annapolis.
Jonathan Pinkney settle in Annapolis before 1777. No direct Cathey connection has been
found."
So I'm wondering.........Is Mary Elizabeth Pinkney Alexander's wife or not? I
can find nothing in the local library on the Pinkney's on line that sheds any light
for me. I've checked various on line books as well.
