Ernie:

I noticed your reference to William and Christopher "at Thomas Amis' store in Rogersville."  
I thought you all might be interested in seeing this Bowling/Amis link :

It looks like the Thomas Amis of the Rogersville (Hawkins Co., TN) store is likely the same as the above father of John Amis who married Catherine Bolling in 1794.

As you all remember the earliest James Bowling of Goochland/Cumberland was somehow connected to these Hughes and to Christopher Clark who loaned him a considerable amounts of money.

By elimination, wouldn't this William bca 1740 have to the William listed with Christopher on the 1767 tax list in Pittsylvania since James bca 1756 was there with Christopher in Lee Co.., VA 1801-1803 and quite likely the same William who was with Christopher at Thomas Amis' store in Rogersville?
