all listers, I am gathering info. on the families that lived in the above areas from the 1600's to 1800's. As I am sure most of you know the families from that area intermarried and most of us are related in some way. I am attempting to combine the records of the families from that area to get a more complete picture of the family makeup. I have a lot in my files already but always need more. The main lines are RAWLS, BAKER, WINBOURNE, HARRELL, HOWELL, BYRD, PORTER, TROTMAN, JONES, HOLLAND, PARKER, FAULK, VAUGHAN, DUKE, NORFLEET, JENKINS, COPELAND, STALLINGS, HARE, EVERITT, DAUGHTREY among others. The NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA tax list are EXTREMELY helpful in putting families together. I have made great progress in the RAWLS line and on several of the families that married into them. any help is truly appreciated. the results will be posted to my web pages as I progress. thanks in advance I want to thank all of you who have already sent me material, I DO give credit to each of the contributors and will also have a contributor page with contact information with families they are researching.
