Thank you Randy for your prompt reply. We can all get things a bit garbled at times.

I obviously meant Joshua Wynne (c.1663-1715), the Indian trader/interpreter , and his Thomas (1657-c.1718), sons of Robert Wynne.

Mary Jones married Joshua Wynne, son of Col. Robert Wynne and Mary Francis Sloman Poythress. Joshua is a part of the expedition to KY/TN area. In 1703, the Tuscarora, the Nansemond and the Meherrin request that Joshua Poythress and his brother Thomas be interpreters for the tribes and he (Joshua) was killed by the Saponi Indians. . . " My questions are: Has it ever been proven that Joshua Wynne was son of Col Robert by his marriage to Mary Poythress? Has it ever been proven that Mary Francis' maiden name was "Sloman"? Is Mr. Jones actually referring to Joshua Wynne and his brother Thomas, or to Joshua and Thomas Poythress? I am a bit confused. I don't believe Joshua Wynne ever went by "Joshua Poythress" (there was another Joshua Poythress, however).
