Could that be William jr., son of William and Ann Vansant? I don't have much of anything on him--birth order etc.--but the parents were married in 1727 and if he was among the older kids he could have been well over 20, maybe 30 in 1763. The request for a certificate to Goose Creek MM in Loudon County says "for William and his younger children." Does anyone have good information on the children in this family? I have to leave for awhile but later will go back through the Quaker records I have to see if there might be a mention of son William anyplace unless someone else already knows.

HATCHER website: http://hatcherfamilyassn.com HALL DNA project: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~nhatcher/hall/HDNAtest.htm "If you can't stand the skeletons, stay out of the closet" - Val D Greenwood What I know about Wm's kids......... Wm Jr md 1779 in LoudounCo, VA, d 1816 (proven by will). No children. Supposedly bn c1740. Wife supposedly bn c1750 (unproven). One of these 2 either incapable of having children OR they were much older than we show. If he and Mary were bn c1730, that could be why no children. He would also have been abt 86 when he died. Nothing about being rec'd on request. Sarah Hatcher Russell, wife of Sam. NO Quaker recs on these two. She supposedly bn c1728, 3 kids shown but no sourcing for them. Where were they in 1754? What proof of her 1728 bdate? She was mentioned dead last in Wm's will. John - enough evidence to know he was born before 1736. He has an unsourced bdate of 8-29-1729 yet no specific death date. May have been born anytime between 1729-1735 unless his birth date can be proven. Was rec'd on request 1755. James bdate of 7 Mar 1732 from Quaker recs Was rec'd on request. George bn c1738. Not a thing to verify this and based on his marriage dates, he could have been born as much as 10 yrs later. Thomas with unsourced bdate 15 Jan 1750 YET he was rec'd on request in 1761. At age 11?? Hmmm...something not right here. Nel
