Hello Kay, Unfortunately, I don't have any more information than what you have, but you may want to have a look at this website: http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/m/e/a/Victor-L-Meadows/index.html This Victor (not Victor Paul) sites documents. He keeps his website up-to-date, to you can correspond with him. Good Luck! sm >>> "stelladog" <[email protected]> 09/21/00 05:17PM >>> Steve, I apologize for taking so long to respond. I don't have any information to offer you, so didn't write at first. Now I am getting so frustrated that I hope you might have some information to share with me! I am descended from Obediah Meador who married Prudence Wells in 1786 in Prince Edward County, VA. Victor Paul Meador states in his book that this Obediah was the son of Mary Ann Meador who was the daughter of Joshua Joel Meador of Amelia County, VA. His documentation of that fact is unsatisfactory to me. Do you have any documents to suggest that Joel had a daughter named Mary Ann? And that Mary Ann had a son named Obediah who married a Prudence Wells? I have been stuck at this point for a long time!
