Thomas Young Gill born c1778 in VA married Elizabeth born c1780 in VA.  I believe this is probably the Thomas Y. Gill son of William Gill of Iredell Co., NC.  Note that there are several Thomas Young Gills in this family, and they are not yet assigned with confidence!

This is information that was copied from my ggggrandfathers school book and thought you might want to look at it. The book is very fragile so I decided to copy the data. I sent the same information to the Upson Co. Archives Dept. thinking that they would like to include the data about him in their county historial site.
