John D. Sluder is my grt,grt,grt Grandfather and we have not been able to find out who was his father or our earlier ancestors. My brother Danny Leon Sluder took DNA test and it is Showing we are kin to Plemmons and Herrins. Found the book on Plemmons family and allied lines saying surnames Plemmons, Plehman, Plemons, Cole, Cunningham, Hayes, Herrin, Ratcliff, and Sluder. Found where Nancy Sluder married John Plemmons. This would mean we are kin to John and Mary West Sluder. For the descendants of John D. Sluder born Jan 21, 1821 in North Carolina.
