I recently sent to those of you for whom I have an email address an interesting article. It is an 1897 article about Col. & Mrs. Peter Poythress giving a "Hunt Supper" for Col. George Washington in a year preceding the Revolution. Unfortunately, I have a PC problem. When I try to send an attachment to multiple people the attachment doesn't travel through the pipe. However, if I send it as a one-fer MS Word attached document it seems to travel okay. For those of you who either didn't get the original email or did get the original email but not the attachment, I will be happy to send it to you individually just sent me an email to that effect and I will respond to you alone with the attachment. Sorry for the technical problem. Incidentally, Al Tims will be posting the article to the Poythress.net web page shortly. Best, Maynard

This has nothing to do with the "Hunt Supper" but I find it interesting that, supposedly, Sloman Wynne, grandson of Colonel Robert Wynne,served in the militia under Colonel George Washington. Sloman died in Sussex Co., VA in 1760/61. Wouldn't this have been the Sussex Co. militia and since Sloman's son and his children were again, supposedly, loyal to the King, I suppose at the time Sloman served under Washington there were no "ill feelings" against the King? Another question, in what county and when was the Hunt Supper Held? (I did not receive the article). Deloris Wynne-Riley delorisriley@satx.rr.com -----Original Message----- From: John M.
