Thank you. I have about four more Francis Poythress men to post. I am not at all happy with the results but I am going to post them with the hope that someone else can separate the individuals' lives. According to Batte, one of them died prior to 1729. I believe that two more of them died within approximately two years of each other, one before March, 1738 and one after August 15, 1739. Finally, there is the preacher, probably Maynard's favorite tease. Once these are posted, we can all have at the Thomas Poythress line....Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara P.
