Thanks to Jane we have the Poythresses off of a new database: Henrico Parish in Docese of Virginia (from Ancestry) as below: Description: The history of the parish of Henrico in the Diocese of Virginia and especially of St. John's Church spans from 1611 to 1884. Lewis W. Burton, a rector of St. John's Church, compiled the records of this parish at the request of the Bishop in 1904. This database contains information regarding the lives of some of the clergy, the heads of prominent families in the church, pew holders, and communicants can be found here. The database also includes records on marriages, baptisms, burials, and epitaphs. Source Information: Ancestry.com.

The first Charlotte above is indeed Charlotte Reed Poythress-A who was b. 1880 and died at age 3+ months, buried in Shockoe Cemetery, Richmond. Batte's Charlotte Reed Poythress-B is b. 1881, d. 1906, aged 25. She dies in Richmond as a result of an accidental fall. I have her obituary around here somewhere but can't lay my hands on it. Batte comments further: "She was given the same name that had been given to her deceased sister, that of their grandmother. She was unmarried. The marble slab marking her grave in Hollywood, like all others in the lot bears only her name. It reads 'Charlotte Poythress' - no more." The SECOND "Charlotte Poythress" cited in the parish records above is indeed the grandmother for whom both sisters were named. She was b. 1825, d. 1897 at age 72....just as stated in the records of the Henrico Parish. She was Charlotte Reed who married William Peterson Poythress. William Peterson Poythress died in Nassau, BWI, during blockage running operations in the War for Southern Independence. Wife Charlotte Reed Poythress died in Richmond in 1897. The aunt of the two sisters and niece of the grandmother was Sarah Reed Poythress (1852-1927), unmarried. Batte states "Upon her decease in Richmond, passed the last living decendent of Joshua Poythress - 21 to be born with the surname 'Poythress.' The name thus became extinct in the "21" branch." MP
