Unfortunately, the second book, a thesis titled "Long Families on the Rappahannock River Before 1800" stated that the connection made by the PCH article between Reuben Long's father Benjamin Long (b.1755) of Culpepper County, VA and his "father" Brumfield Long ( and therefore his supposed grandfather, Samuel Long) were incorrect, and that there is no conclusive evidence to support any claim to who Benjamin Long's ancestors really are. I had hoped to find someone with knowledge of the whereabouts of "Red Place" cemetery, and thus of Reuben Long and his ancestors. >> My ancestral half-uncle, Jeremiah Satterfield was married 26 April 1830 to Martha Long, daughter of Reuben and Martha Long; Jeremiah's sister, Barbara Satterfield was married 12 August 1834 to Matthew Long. I have never determined if Matthew was in any wise related to Martha. I would be interested in any information on this, just to satisfy my curiosity. Also, have you encountered an Aaron Long. Aaron married my ancestral aunt, Roan Wrenn. Roan Wrenn was a daughter of Sidney Wrenn and his wife, Catherine Dicey Gregory, of Person County, NC. I have been attempting to determine any further data of Aaron and his family. I would very much like to find descendants of this liason. Best regards, John Fox Winston Salem, NC
