Hello, Re: PARTRIDGE - WILSON - WILLIAMS - KELLY - STOKES - BELL - DONIPHAN - JENNINGS - WILLOUGHBY - PAYNE - EDRINGTON - ROBINSON - RIVETT - EIDSON/EDISON - COLCLOUGH surnames that connect in 1600's - 1700's England and/or Virginia. I want to lead this query by saying that I am very grateful to Linda KELLY (KELL) and John COLCLOUGH for recently sending me information that has helped uncover some missing pieces of information in my JENNINGS - KELLY - DONIPHAN - PARTRIDGE ancestry for which I have been searching. I am looking for any information on the following, (below listed,) probable PARTRIDGE sisters and their various marriages and family connections, (listed below,) and searching for whom their parents were as well as more information about the connecting families including the WILSON/WILLSON line and a possible connecting WILLIAMS line for my 4th great grandmother, (wife of Samuel EARLE, IV, (Sgt./Rev. War,) born: 1766 in Fauquier Co., VA,) who was Tabitha WILLIAMS, born: 1766, daughter of Catherine "Caty" ? and George WILLIAMS who is thought to be the son of Anne WILLIAMS and Roger WILLIAMS who is descended from James WILLIAMS, born: abt. 1572 in St. Albans, Hertfordshire, England, and his wife, Alice PEMBERTON, born: 18 Feb 1564 in St. Albans, Hertfordshire, England, died: 01 Aug 1634, London, England, (mother: Katherine STOKES, died: aft. 1578, father: Robert PEMBERTON, born: abt. 1520, died: 16 Jul 1578.
