I would like to know if anyone has found any evidence the New York Earls of which some of them married into the Driggs families from the NY, Ohio, Connecticut and Massachusetts areas are related to the Earls families of North Carolina, Virginia, South Carolina and Tennessee areas?

I descend from Gamaliel Earls from Granville County, North Carolina

My line is Gamaliel Earls>William H. Earls>Bennet Earls>Allen Earls>John O. Burton Earls>Stephen Arnold Douglas Earls>Henry Allen Earls>
Silas Montgomery Earls>Linda Susan Earls>John Anthony Pereira
