Thanks very much for your reply. I am descended from the marriage of Francis Tyler and Ann Strother and from Joel Moody and another Ann Strother. The second Ann is descended from Jeremiah Strother and lived in GA. If you are right, I am more closely related to the President than I thought.

Over the years,I have seen a number of sources that state that the John Tyler in question married Eleanor Strother and lived in South Carolina. There is a history of that branch of the family in one of the collections of VA genealgies, The Tyler, Strothers and Allens, that states this John Tyler was declared insane in VA and sent to GA in the custody of his sister. I have been in correspondence with one lady who claims to be a desencdent. A number of official sources, like the Ancestors of American Presidents, give another descent for Gov. Tyler.
