Lei Pirkle

As you can all see, I have been catching up the blog.  Not a picture associated with this entry.  There has always been a question about the last name of the wife of James T. Simpson, the first of our Simpsons to come to Georgia.  I found an extract of a Church record from Pendleton District, SC that mentions a Pirkle and his sister Lei Simpson.  I think we can feel fairly sure that Pirkle is the correct name.  I have sent for the full church records on microfilm (interlibrary loan) to see what else I can find.

Hi,

My chart shows my GGrandmother, Emma Jane Simpson and her parents as James Simpson and Lei Pirkle. Does this info fit with your Simpson history?
