I have emailed my cousin for the complete will info that she has, and will send it out as soon as I get all the exact references.We had chased George Washington McElroy for years with what few clues we had, and kept running into Green McElroy and Bryant Herring and their families. Two of Green's children and George married Bryant Herring's children.Just watching for them finally led us to the 1850 census for Samuel and family,
