Dear Harvey: All I do know about the BOTTOMS Family is that my beloved wife, now deceased, was Ruth Dalton Bottoms and her ancestry is as follows: l. John Thomas Bottoms ( ? ) and Hanna Truman ( ? ) of Henrico Co., VA. 2. Robert Lee Bottoms (1863 - 1932) and Maggie Chenault (1867- 1953) of Henrico Co., VA and Richmond, VA. 3. Wilbur Hoge Bottoms (1897-1981) and Pearl Radford Wilkinson (1897-1983) of Richmond, VA. It is my understanding that there were a considerable number of the Bottoms Family living in Chesterfied Co., VA. As to the validity of this I can not be sure. Regartds, Bernie in Northern Virginia
