ABSOLOM BOSTIC PRYOR of Johnson Co., AR

As you scroll through the descendants of Absolom B. Pryor you will find an entry in red font; his granddaughter Kannie Robinson married in to my line of Pryors from Sumner Co., TN. I have not found an earlier connection between these two Pryor families. Coincidence?

Absolom B. Pryor was found on the 1830 Census in Fayette Co., TN and in 1850 living in Johnson Co., AR.
