For years, I have been trying to locate the parents of my Mary Jane Priddy Cook. I thought they were going to be another one of my brick walls! I located some Priddy men in the area where she was from and deduced them being connected to her SOMEHOW. I found William and John Edward and researched forever, it seemed. I finally had some proof that they were all the children of Elijah and Sarah Baughan Priddy. I have still not located Elijah's parents nor Sarah's [could her last name be Vaughan and not Baughan...as people tended to phonetically spell names back in the olden days?]
Keep going back and chipping away at your brick walls and don't give up!
