Nancy was born in 1850 and married a William Keen. They had 12 children with George (W)illiam Keen being born January 1873 in Buchanan County, Va. Most likely Grundy. George W married two times and his 2nd wife was Louise E. Ratliff. Her parents were Julius Ratliff and Malinda Looney. Georges 1st wife was Mary E. ????. My records of the children are not figuring in correctly with the two marriages but shows that George fathered 6 children, Oliver, Josie, Lilburn, Eva, Virginia and James. If any of this fits in with your line then we are related through Nancy born in 1850. Let me know. Jimmy
