Of course there are possibilities that can't be totally discounted at this point. However, remember that Lewis did not mention Elizabeth in the Laurens Co. record. I believe he would have or should have if it involved her. Now if I find a dower release by a Mary Akin on Lunenburg deeds, that will pretty well solve all our problems. On the PAGE family. There were some Page's in Charlotte Co. There's a good chance of an intermarriage somewhere up the line. Without looking, one of the Mann's married a Daniel Perkinson. In later records I ran into a Page Perkinson going bond on a Samuel and Jesse Mann. Thought I'd note that. I suggest that those interested go to Rootweb, click search, type in VA-SOUTHSIDE-L. Then type in a search for "Sunlight on the Southside". It is multi-part file on Lunenburg Tithe Lists. Open them and save them. Those files will open your eyes as they have done mine. Godspeed.....Patrick
