Listers, I'm not sure if we have addressed this yet because it refers to some old posts, but I was going through some of my files this morning and found something interesting. I had found a posting on rootsweb world connect that is about Comptons. What I found interesting are the names and places. These Comptons were originally from Charles Co MD. There were several kids and some of those kids scattered throughout VA. There is a John who went to Halifax Co VA married and died there. John had a brother Jehu. If I recall, there was some discussion that the name on Barton's arrest record was not John Compton, but Jehu. What this family report tells us is that there is a Jehu who was close to Barton's age and who could have been in Halifax at the same time as Barton since his brother John was living there at that time. I have no further info on this Jehu other than he existed. Lou Ann
