I’m interested in finding more information on her as well. According to Ancestry.com, she is my great x 6 grandmother. It says she was married to John Henry Banks (1753-1804) and that Mourning Dove was born in 1760 and died in 1840. My great x 5 grandfather was their alleged son Andrew Banks (1797-1857), who lived in Yancey NC. I’m originally from Ohio, but I live in the Charlotte NC area now so it’d be great to get any more information on her and where she lived.
John and Mourning Dove are my 5th greats according to Ancestry, through their son Nathanial. Im 32 and live in TN.
