Howdy Ruth: Thank you ever so much for responding to my query on the Bottoms Family. I want to start by saying that I am not a descendant of the Bottoms Family, but my beloved wife, now deceased, was Ruth Dalton Bottoms (1926-1993). Her lineage in the Bottoms Family is as follows: 1. John Thomas Bottoms ( ? ) of Henrico Co., VA. 2. Robert Lee Bottoms (1863-1932) of Henrico Co. and Richmond, VA married Maggie Chenault (1867-1953) 3. Wilbur Hoge Bottoms ( 1897-1981) of Richmond, VA married Pearl Radford Wilkinson (1897-1983) My wife has one brother named Garland Lee Bottoms who now resides in Florida. Anything that you can tell me about this family will be greatly appreciated. I am helping my son and my daughter in their efforts to trace their family roots. Warmest Regards and God Bless.
