Dear Willette, You give the "Morman Archives" as you source for a James Breedlove in Virginia in 1655, but what is THEIR source??? What is the PRIMARY documentatiion here?? What county in Virginia was a record for a James Breedlove on that early date found? As for Charles Breedlove having brothers Thomas & Cornelius, what is the documentation for that? Where did these two brothers live? Charles Breedlove had a SON, Thomas [my ancestor], born c. 1730, who had a SON Cornelius, born c. 1769. As far as I know, the given name Cornelius entered the Breedlove family with this Cornelius, named for his maternal grandfather, Cornelius Vaughan. I use the LDS records all of the time, and their microfilmed copies of the primary records [such as wills, court records, land records, marriage registers, etc] are excellent. Many of their family submitted records are good too, but some are not. These records are only as good as the expertise of the researcher who submitted them can make them. They should always be independently verified. But if there was a James Breedlove somewhere in Virginia in 1655, with wife Kindness, I should like to find him! Even Hope Perry's book, as excellent as it is in many respects, has errors in it. Other people's research can only point the way for us. Marilyn Owen
