Hello this is Laura and James Marsingill. We are researching variant spellings of the Marsingill, Massingill name. We have a large bit of information on the ancestors of James. This Family is a very large family and is very well spread across the USA.We are looking for more information on James' and his siblings Great great grandfather, Bailey D. Massingill,Born in Rabun County, Georgia Decemeber 15, 1845 to who we believe is a Robert and Susanna Marsingill.(her maiden name is unknown at the moment)
This is not a definate connection to Robert Marsongill,Marsingill,Marsengill,Massongill,Massingill
So far all of James' ancestors have been in Georgia.. but if this truely is Bailey father then he was born in North Carolina in the early 1814 to 1816 by an 1850 census of Rabun County, Georgia
