About the Pedigo line... They came from France in the early 1700's into Maryland. They then wondered into VA, TN,
KY, IN, and other parts of the USA. I have started a
discussion group on the Pedigo/Peregoy family line. If you are interested
in joining the listserv, just send me an e-mail, or join the list at
