Surnames: SCARBOROUGH & ANDREWS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Wm.2ADEB/2966.1 Message Board Post: Dear Deborah, I think that the Rev. Lewis Scarborough (b. 6 Aug 1809, NC) whose parents were Samuel Scarbrorough and Mary Andrews may be the same individual as the Lewis Scarbrough (b.ABT 1810, NC) whose father was Samuel Scarbrough (b. ABT 1783, Brunswick Co., VA; d. AFT 1850, Montgomery Co., NC). The latter Samuel was a first cousin of my GGG-Grandfather William Scarbrough (b.14 Sep 1775, Brunswick Co., VA; d. 7 Apr 1857, Montgomery Co., NC). Samuel's father was Lewis Scarbrough/Scarburgh (b. BEF 1730, VA?;d. BET 15 Feb 1797/27 Feb 1797, Brunswick Co., VA) while William's father was John Scarbrough/Scarburgh (b. ABT 1716, VA?; d. BET 6 Jun 1814/ 4 Jan 1815, Montgomery Co., NC). Samuel, John were two of at least four sons of Edward Scarbrough of Surry County, Virginia. William and Edward were the other two. If "your" Samuel Scarborough and Rev. Lewis Scarborough (b. 6 Aug 1809) and "my" Samuel Scarbrough and Lewis Scarborough (b.ABT 1810) are the same father-son pair, I can provide you with the unbroken documented lineage back to William Scarborough/Scarburgh of Bacon's Rebellion (b.ABT 1630, North Walsham, England;d.16 Mar 1676/77, Surry Co., VA) and Amy Naomi Davis. I have extensively researched most, if not ALL, of the Brunswick County, Virginia and Montgomery County, North Carolina Scarbrough/Scarburgh families. The Scarborough and Andrew families intermarried with great frequency from at least the mid-1700s to early 1800s in Brunswick County, Virginia, Montgomery County, North Carolina as well as Stewart County, Tennessee. I can probably also locate the Mary Andrews, wife of Samuel Scarborough and mother of the Rev.Lewis Scarborough. I have a lot of information that I am willing to share with you that is too voluminous to post on a message board. I don't make it to many of them very often anyway. I found yuor query on Samuel/Lewis while searching for Lewis. Please e-mail me directly at [email protected] when you post a reply to my message on Ancestry.com. I will be happy to respond to other researchers as well! Best Regards, Alex Scarbrough Centennial, Colorado
