MESSAGE TO HARPS: In one researcher's notes, I found a connection that established a connection: Willm Harp, Sr. of Rappahannock Co., VA to son John Harper-establishing son Willm,Jr. & John Harper. References for this were given as: WKS Bk 10:p.21-25,Lancaster Co.VA; REcord Book 2,1654-1666, Records Deed of Gift 22, Jan. 1655. I have not verified this reference, but it should be easy to find in Lancaster Co. Credit given to Ken Schwarzburg who had traced the family to early Yorkshire, England. Hope this helps somebody! Please let me know as this family line is continued to Halifax Co., NC and GA.
