I'll keep the children in my prayers, naturally, and let time tell its course. I made a lot of mistakes. I stunk the place up. She's still in my heart. Great site, Happy Holiday, keep my spirits up!

Comments:Updating previous query on Jacob Kelly and Margaret Gore. I now no longer believe that Margaret is the daughter of Henry Gore, but rather I believe she is his great-niece. She may be the daughter of Reuben Gore, the son of Henry's older sister Mary, who later married a Breedlove. Reuben had a sister, Rachel. Both names appear in Jacob's family, with his first son named Reuben. Does anyone have proof to share that Margaret is Reuben's daughter?

Comments:I am looking for information on JACOB WALL(S) of Culpeper, who was born around 1747. I have land records in 1772 that show his father and mother (FRANCIS AND MARGARET WALLS of Bromfield Parish, Culpeper) gave him 150 acres of land on the Rapahanock River. They also gave his older brother, JAMES, 150 acres. In 1775 JACOB sold the land and then shortly turned up in Wilkes Co NC. He had one son, JOSEPH WALLS who lived his life out in Wilkes NC. JOSEPH'S son, JAMES WALLS, took his wife, MARY MOLLIE PARKS, and moved to Indiana in 1821. They settled in Hendricks Co Indiana and the family remained there. I can find no trace of FRANCIS AND MARGARET WALLS to verify who they are or what happened to them. I also, have found nothing on JACOB'S wife or other children.

She died in 1971 leaving my great grandfather, his brother and husband Sledge Minns Robertson. I cannot find where she may be buried. I cannot find records in Alabama. Would she have been brought back to Culpeper so soon after the war? I have found some remarks on another website where she may have been buried in Colvin Cemetery. Looking for more information on the Wharton Family and what happened to John Redd and Eliza Colvin Wharton.

Most informal records show Reuben Overton as born in the Richmond area, but I suspect that he was related to the John Howerton>Obadiah Overton/Howerton> Lewis Overton line of Culpeper County. I suspect this because of parallel naming patterns in both families. If anyone has information on this it would be wonderful. Thanks.

Martha (b. 1825 Va.) lived bore 8 children in Culpeper Co., including Robert L., Georgiana, Larkin W., Peter, James, Susan L., Murray Jr, and Charles. Murray was not listed on censuses with Martha (who was white) and children (and Murray's mother Susan) so I don't know if he was a slave or a free man of color who worked away from home. Their children seem to have become successful in their lives and marriages, with several remaining in Culpeper County, as farmers of their own farms.

Comments:I am searching for information on Thomas Jordan (1720-1809) and his grandson Thomas (1774-?). Sharshall Jordan (1747-1813) was the father of the younger Thomas. He moved to KY in 1801 and bought a farm that same year. Young Thomas apparently never moved away from Culpeper Co. Also,any information on "Flint Hill" and "Locust Grove". Were they churches or early settlements? The elder Thomas was buried at/in Locust Grove. Enjjoy the site. Will probably join the Society.
