    ... Hannah Rose, wife of Bazil Brooke Edmonston, was born 14 Feb 1765, according to early letters that survive in the hands of descendants of this Edmonston family. Primary records and surviving letters show this Edmonston family left Surry County, North Carolina, in the late 18-teens and removed to Dubois County, Indiana. Letters were exchanged back and forth with family members who remained in North Carolina.

    These letters on occasion mentioned the Parmenas Taylor family and in one instance, in an 1827 item, even announced Parmenas Taylor's death. In that letter, Parmenas Taylor's son-in-law John Cunningham Turnley (residing in Jefferson County, Tennessee) revealed the news to Hannah Rose's son Ninian Edmonston (residing in North Carolina) and called him a cousin. White County and the Jarvis family [descendants of Bradford sisters who married Jarvis brothers] were also mentioned in other Edmonston letters.

    Hannah Rose was clearly a half-sister of Parmenas Taylor, a daughter of his mother Sarah Bradford. ...
