    1. Wm P Poythress Druggist - NOT in the Foxhall Poythress line
    2. Barbara P. Neal

    3. For clarification on future hunts thru our List-Archives (thanks, Lyn, for reminding me about that): The info from R. Bolling Batte's cards shows us that the William P. Poythress (middle name Powhatan) who owned Poythress Drug Company in Richmond, VA, was born about 1847, son of William Peterson Poythress & Charlotte Reed; William Peterson Poythress was son of Patrick Henry Poythress (b.about 1780; died 1822) & Mary Elizabeth Eppes; Patrick Henry Poythress was son of William Poythress & Mary Gilliam. Thus the druggist was NOT directly in the same line with Foxhall Alexander Poythress (b.Jan 1887; d.Aug 1932), who was the son of William Lewis Poythress (b.about 1843-44; d.about Jan 1915) & Ella Anna Jane Jones; William Lewis Poythress was the son of Thomas M. Poythress (b.about 1820-23; d.Jul 1891) & Lucy I. Thomas; Thomas M. Poythress was son of Lewis Poythress. So, the Richmond druggist could well be related to Foxhall & to all the rest of us Poythress folks, but at this point we don't know the connection. The Batte cards are accessible at the Library of Virginia website, at: http://www.lva.lib.va.us/whatwehave/bio/BA.html and Diana Diamond's wonderful work organizing info from many of Mr. Batte's cards can be found at: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=va_families

    3. RE mentioned below: Patrick Henry Poythress was son of William Poythress & Mary Gilliam. Does anyone have information on Mary Gilliam's parents or male siblings? Is there any information to indicate a female Gilliam married a male Wilson between ~1730-~1800. Reason, in another line I have there is a William Gilliam Wilson who I cannot find the parents for. William was born 2-4-1790 Warren Co, NC Died Nov 1857 (Sale Warren Co WB 45-150). Pat ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara P.
