This document is signed by James Tully, believed to be my 4th great-grandfather, and it shows that he was literate and had good hand-writing. As noted earlier, James is believed to have married Dorcas Toncray. We know from census records that James Tully was in Washington County from at least 1820 to 1830 but we don't know much else. Death records of Sarah Tully, my 3rd great-grandmother, indicated that she was the daughter of James Tully, of Little Rock, Arkansas. My mother speculates that James Tully is the James that is related to the first Tully in Virginia, John Tully, who married Rebecca New's sister Sarah.
