On 7/3/02. Georgia Hornbuckle had a listing of Adam Russell's family. She descends from his son, Andrew Russell, Sr., and she shows Adam's other son as William Russell b between 1710 and 1725. My ancestor was William Russell, Sr. b abt 1715 and died in Halifax Co., VA., in 1777. His will dated 7 March 1775 was filed 20 Mar. 1777 in Halifax Co., VA. Listed in this will is wife Anne (thought to be Anna Buckner) and children; William, Jr., Anna Light, Sarah Walters, Lucretia Dodson, Buckner (Mrs. Hornbuckle shows him as a son of Andrew.), Elizabeth, Judith Bennett, George, and Absalom. Although there was a lot of Russells in Virginia, I have never been able to prove the father of William Russell, Sr. I descend from him as follows: William Russell, Jr. b abt 1740 in Brunswick Co., VA , Ephriam Russell b abt 1775 in Pittsylvania Co., VA, William T. Russell b 1805 in Lincoln Co., KY., Emiline Jane Russell b 1833 in Henderson Co., KY., (unmarried when her son was born), William Wesley Russell b 1858 in Henderson Co., KY, Albert Wilson Russell b 1883 in Marion Co., IL, James W. Russell b 1902 in Marion Co., IL., and Donald R. Russell b 1923 in Jefferson Co., IL. I hope this helps Mrs. Hornbuckle and any other Russell's descendants that are working on this line. Can anyone help me prove William Russell, Sr.'s parentage? I am sending a copy of this Email to Georgia at Georgiamhh@aol.com. Don Russell, Treasure Island, FL
