    1. [PETERS] BURT/PETERS/PATRICK York Co., VA
    2. Please help! For a long time now I have understood that the wife of John Rogers PATRICK was Elizabeth PETERS. Elizabeth PETERS was the daughter of Mathew PETERS and his wife Rebecca [-?-]. They came from York County, VA. In trying to establish a connection for Mathew PETERS to his ancestors, I have come across some information in the line of the BURT family. The will of Richard BURT (ca. 1665-1745) lists his grandchildren, presumably children of an unnamed BURT daughter, as follows: Item I give to my grandson Francis PETERS one Shilling Sterling Item I give to my grandson Matthew PETERS one Shilling Sterling Item I give to my grandson Robert PETERS one Shilling Sterling Item I give to my grandson Edmund PETERS one Shilling Sterling Item I give to my granddaughter Mary PETERS one Shilling Sterling Item I give to my granddaughter Elizabeth PETERS one Shilling Sterling Item I give to my granddaughter Anne PETERS one Shilling Sterling Can anyone substantiate this, and/or add further information? Can these children be identified? Is there documentation on the PETERS line of YORK County, VA, anywhere? What is the name of the BURT daughter? What about the name of the PETERS she married? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Bryan L. Curtis Greensboro, NC
