Barbara and Craig, great work. Thanks so much for sharing. This is another confirmation of William L. Poythress as the son of Thomas M. Poythress and Lucy Thomas of Mecklenburg County, Virginia. It also confirms his military record. This agrees, by the way, with WLP's 1909 pension application, which is available in the LVA digital collection. William is the father of Foxall Poythress and others, and the ancestor of many, many descendants that still bear the Poythress name. Best regards, Lyn P.
