MANLY, WILLIAMS, WALLACE, WYNNS

Searching for the parents of my 4th great grandmother, Martha W. aka"Patsy". Listed as the consort of Rev. John MANLY on her tombstonein Henry Co., Tennessee. She and John left Stewart Co. around 1820and were among the first settlers in Henry Co. She was born about1791 (possibly in Anson Co., NC as was John) and died on 12 Feb 1822.I believe the families were in Montgomery Co., TN for a time beforecoming to Stewart. Martha and John married about 1811 or 1812(likely Stewart Co). They named their first son William CharlesManly. The Manly migration seems to coincide with the migration ofseveral families including possible "W" families WALLACE, WILLIAMSand WYNNS. Also HOGAN, ATKINS and LILLY. No luck yet in finding herparents. I've been searching for some time. Hoping someone mightknow where Martha fits in with her Tennessee or North Carolinafamily.
