RE: the Deas/Dees/Deese line of your family is also my Grandfathers...You mentioned a Christine was your mothers grandparents. Christine is my grandfather's sister. Their parents were Jno Samuel Dees (have seen the name Scriven Deas and Liza Tidwell) and mothers name was Eliza Dees (spelled differently) I believe these to be the same people. My grandfather was Lenwood (Lenord), Christines brother. They were born in Sumter, SC. I am looking for any information regarding anyone in that family. We never knew alot about my grandfather and trying to find anything we can.
