I have a POTTS family from Loudoun County, VA to Adams County, OH cir. 1830s. POTTS is a large family with lots of sons in each generation. There is no Hiram or Jesse in my database, although I have David who was probably born early 1700's. The progenitors of my Adams County POTTS were Enos POTTS and Lydia BROWN. I think they were brought to Adams County, quite late in life, by their son, Enos who was still in Loudoun County, Virginia until at least 1832 where he married Martha TAVENNER. Cathy Brinkman
