The man in this picture looks just like Isom Davis, whose mother was Nancy Tyree. There has to be a connection here.

Ginny:
Your Nancy Tyree might have been a sister of Robert H. Tyree who was John's father. Try contacting the Lawrence County Genealogical and Historical Society at [contact link].
Good luck and thanks for writing.'
