Hi Adam, now since you did point out a son of James and Elizabeth Brown I did find your line, I had spelled names a little wrong and since so many close names on Anderson side did not see it. I have :
William was apparently named as the executor of the will of his sister and husbands will, Nathaniel Killingsworth, however, Reuben was named in his stead, as William apparently had deceased about the time the will was filed.
From the Internet I found information which differs on this William so will add this as it appears someone has the information to correct his bit of information. Has that he died somewhat later, married a spouse different from what I have and had several children. I had that he probably died before 1773 in Kent Co., Delaware. Larry 10 Jan 2003.

Thank you for the reply. It is frustrating to hear about any loss of data! I've since acquired information connecting William d. 1791 to the Kent Co. family. There is an article from 1993 in the Delaware Genealogical Society Journal, though not available on the internet, that placed William as a son of James Anderson and Elizabeth Brown of Kent, and a grandson of Thomas Anderson (died 1734). I also dug through the Anderson Y DNA website and found a kit who descends from Matthias. That kit is a close match with yours, so I'll consider the case closed.

Sad to say, but years ago I had started working with every record I could lay hands on and working forward and backwards. Following Delaware records, the Quaker records, especially Hinshaw and Heiss, Indiana Quaker records, etc. was able to amass a large family tree BUT that was when we had the floppy discs, I had about 20 discs with 3 sets of copies, at one time, I lost the data and tried to restore, EVERY set was flawed and stopped because there was a flaw. I did not try nor know to send those to the LDS to help restore at the time, so I lost all the work I had done for years. A couple of things to note.
there are ample records of these families in various records and were well covered in the Quaker and Indiana records mentioned. I remember only the familiarity of the name of Burkelow but note on my data base at this time I do not show the name. Of that time I had a good amount of family data that led thru the present generations on many.Of the names you mention, children of William and Margaret are well known and represented names of these families. The place and time matches perfect with the knwn families and I would be positive they are of this line, but not knowing which direct lineage it would be yet.
