I am a descendant of many of the original families in Shelby County including the Moores, Conways, Faircloths and so on. I have researched these families for over 20 years and am interested in corresponding with others in this county. My daughter, Stephanie Lane Hankins, is descended from the Lanes, and many of the original families of Old Tennessee Community. Barbara Conway Bailey <rebcom@inu.net> 2
