Most of the messages on the Germanna Colonies List pertains to Second Germanna Colonists. Descendants of First Germanna colonists are noted by their absence!!! Maybe it is because we don't read Old German. Question: As far as can be determined, was there intermingling of the First Colonists with the Second Colonists? If so, can one cite some examples? Much of my research is concentrated in Fauquier Co., VA which was formed from Prince William Co. Prince William Co. was formed in 1730 from Stafford and King George counties. Stafford was formed 1664 from Westmoreland County. King George was formed in 1720 from Richmond County. Part of Westmoreland County was added later. Has anyone located the 1714 colonists in the records of any of the above-listed counties? I did find that some of the Holtzclaws were naturalized in Orange Co. **************Plan your next getaway with AOL Travel. Check out Today's Hot 5 Travel Deals!

Virginia Holtzclaw, daughter of John Holtzclaw and Frances Rice, married William Clore, son of Levi Clore and Mary "Polly" Yager, on 19 DEC 1844 in Boone Co., KY... That is merely one example! Does this qualify for "Intermingling"? I'm sure that there are other examples! ~Don -----Original Message----- From: germanna_colonies-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:germanna_colonies-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Hdanw@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 3:14 PM To: GERMANNA_COLONIES-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [GERMANNA] Intermingling of First and Second Germanna Colonists Most of the messages on the Germanna Colonies List pertains to Second Germanna Colonists.
