    Thomas Ruffin (DOB 28 Aug 1797) married Mary E. Parrish on 26 Feb. 1824.
    His father was John D. Ruffin, Sr. (DOB 9 Jan 1773) - my 3rd great
    grandfather.   I am descended from his brother John D. Ruffin, Jr. (DOB 9
    Oct 1795).    Perhaps this Parrish is a connection.
    
    Person researching: Alfred Ruffin Parrish is "Nancy Long"
