phil sifers 8/01/00
its been a long time since I searched this line, but there are a number of Sifers in the area near the modern Wythe/Washington County line---specifically in the Locust Cove Creek area (NW of Saltville).I believe these folks came into the area ca. 1775 or so.A John Sifers seems to have been the eldest member of the family. As I recall George was clearly related to the family of John, but was not a son.Possibly a brother.
As I recall, when John died, George sue one of his sons over the will.
