8.ANDREW
9. JESSE
10.ELIZABETH
Of these last three I know nothing.
PHILLIP SECHRIST changed the spelling of the last name to SECREST sometime
around 1850.
I have had many answer all saying that none of the Sechrist/Secrest in the
Rowan county area in the 1790 census were the father of Phillip.I know he
had to have a set of parents.Also Mary Sullivan had some.
I would like to have any info regarding this line, any help would be most
appreciated.
