Seeking information which may allow me to identify the parents of my 3rd greatgrandfather, Peterson McGILL.

Looking for Drayton Bennett McCOY. Lived in Choctaw Co,MS from 1840 - 1865. Married Edna Elizabeth BARNES, probably not his first wife. More than likely had many children by 1st marriage and also by this wife. Taught school. Eventually moved the Cleveland County, Arkansas and owned lots of land. Looking for information about any of the families that might have been connected to Drayton. At one time he was sent back East to attend
Medical School, but never completed. Great likelihood of a connection between all McCoys from Choctaw County, but can't prove it.
