On my previous posting I forgot to mention that there is a record on my Thomas John family that might play into my query below: Martha John, widow of Thomas John, dec'd, and Benjamin John and wife Lydia of Loudoun Co., VA to Joseph Coleman of Loudoun Lease/release of 141 acres in Shelburne Parish adj Robert Popkins.The witnesses were Thomas George, John Steere and JOHN TODHUNTER. There is also a Thomas John, Sr that died in Loudoun Co., Va with his wife Mary unknown. It isn't known if Thomas John JR. and Thomas John SR are father and son are not but my William Lewis, JR married Martha John listed here in this record and is the daughter of Thomas John, Jr. I think William Lewis, Jr is the son of William Lewis, Sr. that married Jane Griffith in Philadelphia in 1740 but need more proof. That was yt original query but thought this extra info might help in my search. Thanks a lot, This still goes to the posting below and those named.

Would anyone know the Griffith family Jane Griffith might descend from ? I am looking for her parents and siblings. William Lewis, Sr. removed to Loudoun Co., Virginia. I don't know if this will might mean anything in PA or not but in Loudoun Co., VA there was a William Jones who left a will in 1771. His wife was not named but the will names a son Joshua Jones, a daughter married a Griffith, the executor was Jane Lewis and the witnesses were William Lewis and Sarah Griffith. It mentioned land at the New Valley Baptist Church in Loudoun County, VA. This William Lewis is the one I think married Jane Griffith in Philadelphia in 1740 and is my family. William Lewis, Sr. had a son William Lewis, Jr. who married Mary John the daughter of Thomas John and his wife Martha unknown. Thomas John died and left his will in Loudoun Co., VA in 1769. There was also a John Thomas that was asociated with these Lewis, Griffith, Jones and John families. If this rings a bell with anyone I really would appreciate hearing from you.
