Audrey, Yes, David is a son of Nicholas Christopher, and I have Nancy married to Mitchell Oct.11, 1790. That must make us very distant cousins? Then I also show Nancy being married to a William Hamilton in 1799?? I don't have any children listed for Nancy and Mitchell, maybe you can fill me in, and it looks like I have some of the dates wrong as well....

There is another connection to families in VA of John DAVIS, Jr. Note the following: "William BALLARD (d. circa 1817), will dated Jan 9, 1811...4th child, Rebecca BALLARD m. John DAVIS, Jr... "The will speaks of 'my son in law, John OVERTON' and 'my grandchildren Faitha Gray and William B. OVERTON, children of John OVERTON." I can put these families with connections to Surry Co, VA. Becky and Martha BALLARD m. brothers, Bennett and William HOLLOWAY, respectively. William EDMONDS m. Mary GRAY and dau, Faitha EDMONDS, m. John BALLARD, the parents of the two girls Becky and Martha. Hence the name "Faitha Gray OVERTON." The HOLLOWAYS are my husband's. So, you may be right, we could be "cousins" but I don't know just how.
