Thanks, Robert, for sending the info you have on Richard and son, Samuel. I'm sorry that I can't add anything to your Virginia or other Southern Bullock lines. Since I've never found a link with any of them, I haven't saved any of their data (except for some more modern lines like my North Carolina brother.) One of these days someone will probably find the link, then I'll be scrambling to collect the data. There have been various speculations about Richard's origins including the one about coming with brothers, Henry and Edward, but there is, unfortunately, no documentation for any of them. Ginny Deagan <[email protected]> has a collection of the various "theories" at her fine Web site, http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Valley/2726/ I don't include Henry and Edward in my data but do keep the notes on them. Someone may find the links with them also. My Rehoboth & Bristol county sources, like Ginny's, also make no mention of a Nathan in Samuel Bullock's family. Jim Bullock Littleton, CO
