Dandridge......cpmmects to >Pocohontas/Martha Washington, James Spotswood, etc........ Caroline, I don't know. I am trying to unravel. All I was doing was listing names and connections that were written in the Fayette Co. History. Under Dandridge Family.....Wm. Cathey Dandridge, Jr. b l938, Thyatira, MS...parents Wm. Cathey Dandridge..l893-l971) & Velma Dickerson b. l904...grandfather Samuel Hamner Dandridge...m. Nannie Cahtey...ggrandparents...Wm. Alex. Dand. & Jary Jane Hamner.... Wm. Alex. (LITTLE DOVER) DANDridge b. Hanover, VA l8l2 d in Henr4y Co. VA l865...planter...slave owner...gggrandson of Alexander Spottswood of VA l7l0-l723.....goes through some way back there genealogy...but later it says.....Wm & Mary Dandridge had 9 children: Nannie Anderson, Mary Pocahontas, Emma 'Louise, Martha Washington, and Bessie Lee; sons, James Spottswood, Samuel Hamner, George Gilmer, and Walter Alexander.......I just assumed from this that the Dandridges were connected to Martha Washington/Pocahontas/ and Spottswoods..... I have no idea if the information is true or not.....Davie was just trying to find connections to various families, and this was in my run-off materials....... Some day, maybe as I said earlier...generations from now, someone much smarter than I can make these all fit the puzzle that I am sure had to be there with a link.....I'm just getting surer and surer that these Daniel folks of mine tie to MANY more lines than I ever expected, and they are very PROLIFIC.....perhaps I need to switch back to my HORNS and ONEALS.....I've been at a dead end on them for 20 years...........This would certainly depreciate my emails. :-) Beth Thurman or Terri Wolfe Monticello, AR 367-2701
