Descendants of John P. Norwood

Note: A source says she has document showing John P. Norwood is father of Mary Ann Norwood.  This is likely because Mary Ann's husband Giles McBride served as executor of John P. Norwood's estate.  Have not yet gotten actual copy of estate papers, only the mention of them in Hardin County Tennessee Records 1820-1860, compiled by Thomas A. Hays, copyright 1985 by Southern Historical Press, Inc.,
