"My Elijah was born about 1796, and I have *very* little information about his life in Virgina. There's certainly a possibility they were related, but Internet accessible records for that part of Virginia - at that time, for the ANDERSON surname are very difficult to sort out since they don't list members of the households by name, as done in later censuses. I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm going to have to physically visit that part of Va in order to access the records I need to determine his lineage. There were numerous Andersons in that area around the same time frame -and I wish you good luck in your research efforts, too. I'll gladly let you know if I run across "your Elijah," during my research. Thanks for responding. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
