Hi June!
I'm so sorry to not get in touch with you until now... It was the beginning of the holiday season, and then I forgot to get back to you... I thought I remembered connecting with you via e-mail, but nothing came up when I searched my inbox.
Anyway, I would love to learn the  Abraham Sallee information you have - especially his time in France, and how he got here. I know he was involved in the Manakin colony in Virginia... Very exciting to be a descendent of someone important enough to have quite a bit of info out there about him!
As for the Jacksons, I can't tell you as far back as I would like to - I know my aunt got that line back to colonial days as well, but her info is all packed up, and I lost most of what she gave me.  Here are some of the names I was able to find in old e-mails from her:
My g-grandmother was

Nancy Adeline Jackson b 29 Apr 1857 Phelps Co,
daughter of

John J. Jackson b. 30 Aug. 1817 in Harrison Co, KY

                          m. Emily Payne 06 Mar. 1837 in Washington Co MO

                           d.  15 Apr 1898  in Edgar Springs, Phelps Co,

1.  son of

William Pentecost Jackson
b. abt 1780 in KY/VA
m. Jane (Jinny) Sally 09 Nov 1810 in Greene Co KY
d.  24 Nov. 1866 in Washington Co, MO

Hope that is familiar!

June,
I just noticed that you are also researching PEARSON. Are your Pearsons from SC, by chance?

Hello again, June!
I just noticed that I never got a response from you from 1 1/2 years ago... I hope you are ok!
My email address is aplus_lady@hotmail.com , if you still have the Abraham Sallee info.
My apologies if you've already sent it; I can't seem to find it anywhere...
