Thank you very much for the information of the Joiner/Joyner Family. My connection is Great
Grandfather Abram Marshall(Trotman) Cason married Jane C. Tooke her parents were William L.
Tooke and Mary Joiner (Note the information a cousin gave me said she was the Daughter of
Abraham Joiner (R. S.) of Washington Co., Ga.)
Margaret R. Phillips sent some information about Joiner/Joyner, I tried to abstract it I'm attaching a
copy. You may have this information or it may not be any connection to your family?

Thanks again,
George [Cason]

Some Elizabeth Lillington, widow of Hyde, gave a slave to her son Richard Barrows, of Beaufort, in 1740; and left a will naming sons Richard, James, Joseph, William & Samuel Barrow, daus. Sarah Harris & Anna Campbell.   I guess she was the widow of Eliazer.
