Hello Everyone, I have just finished listening to "John Adams" on audiocassette and was very interested in the information that I learned about Richard Lee, from Virgina, most especially about Thomas Jefferson's mother being a Randolph, as well as his daughter, Martha (Patsy) also marrying a Randolph ( a cousin I presumed). This is what I have gathered thus far and was hoping someone might know a little more than I do about this already. T. Jefferson's mother was Jane Randolph; her father was Isham Randolph & his mother was Mary Isham. Martha Jefferson married, Thomas Mann Randolph, Jr, with no mention as to who his parents were from the website I visited. T. Jefferson's wife was Martha Wayles Skelton; her mother was Martha Epes, who was the daughter of Francis IV Epes and the g. daughter of Francis III Epes and Anne Isham. Now if memory serves me right, those were all names - Epes, Isham, & Randolph - that had been in the Poythress lines as well. I found that very interesting and was wondering how they would all connect to Capt. Francis Poythress. Just curious.
