I am nearly positive that these are the same family.   The deed of Jesse Bolin 
to his son John mentions Bumpers fork of the Little River....and it is right 
where the river crosses the county line of Montgomery and Randolph.  But has 
your Bolling line been DNA tested?

I'm not sure about my line connecting to Jesse Bolling or any of that Randolph 
Co.,NC group.  My Reed/Read family, that married into my Bollings, was most 
definitely from the Deep River section of Randolph Co. dating back to 1760 and 
living near the (Enoch) Spinks and Bird families.  My Sarah Bolling and John 
Reed did have a child named Jesse, but that was a fairly common name back in 
those days.  My Bolling/Bolens appear to have been primarily in Montgomery/Old 
Anson Co., NC.

FYI, this is what I have presently pieced together for the children of my John 
Bolling of the Little River in Montgomery Co., NC:

..... 1 JOHN BOLLING b: Abt. 1729 in VA, d: Abt. 1790 in Montgomery Co., NC 
..... +MARY ? m: Abt. 1754 in VA or NC, d: Montgomery Co., NC 
........... 2 SARAH BOLLING b: Abt. 1767 in Montgomery Co., NC, d: 1845 in 
Bedford County, TN 

........... +JOHN REED b: 1764 in Deep River, Randolph County, NC, m: 31 Jul 
1783 in Prob. Randolph County, NC, d: 17 Nov 1839 in Bedford County, TN 

................. 3 Elizabeth Reed 
................. +Thomas C. Price d: Bef. 1819 in Rutherford Co., TN 
................. 3 Jesse Reed 
................. 3 Mary (Polly) Reed b: 1784 in Randolph Co., NC, d: Aft. 1840 
in Pea Ridge, Benton Co., AR 

................. +Adam Dunlap Jr. b: Abt. 1772, m: 1810 in Blount Co., TN, d: 
Aft. 1831, m: 31 Jan 1797 in Blount Co., TN 

................. 3 WILLIAM A. REED b: 1795 in Randolph County, North Carolina, 
d: Bef. 1860 in Henderson County, Tennessee 

................. +MARY b: 1796 in North Carolina, m: Abt. 1815 in Prob. NC, d: 
Aft. 1860 in Henderson County, Tennessee 

................. 3 Lamberd Reed b: Randolph Co., NC 
........... 2 John Bolen b: Abt. 1755 in Unknown 
........... 2 Lucinthia or Lucretia Bolen b: Abt. 1769 in Montgomery Co., NC 
........... +Jesse Hurt b: Abt. 1756 in Maybe Bermuda 
........... 2 David Bolen b: Unknown in Prob. Montgomery Co., NC, d: Abt. 1805 
in Probably Randolph Co., NC 

........... 2 Shubal Bolen b: Aft. 1759 in Prob. Montgomery Co., NC, d: Aft. 
1800 in Prob. GA 

........... 2 Willoughbey ? Bolen b: Unknown in Prob. Montgomery Co., NC 
........... 2    Mitchel? Bolin  b: Unknown in Montgomery Co., NC

I looked up your family in the 1850....and was thinking perhaps you are very kin 
to the Larkin son of Jesse Bolling of Randolph Co. NC....which somehow Mike 
Moffit also connects to....but I don't know if his person has tested to Group 5 
DNA.     Anyway, the Floyds- neighbors - listed North Carolina as their place of 
birth.   Perhaps since the county was also named Floyd you could google the 
history of the county and find out where they came from in NC....and if it was 
Montgomery or Randolph then you would be that Larkin or one of his 
relatives...and they had a family history of several of their siblings moving to 
Indianna.  Mark Bolin was one mentioned in that letter....and I don't remembe 
the other's names.
