Edward CORBIN
Amanda SLOAN
A patrilineal descendant of our subject has been DNA tested, with the result that he matches a descendant of Simeon Jackson CORBIN of Lafayette Co., FL.  The two have not yet connected on paper, and their immigrant ancestor remains unidentified, but it is a welcome development that these two elusive CORBIN lines have at least found a connection with each other.
