Hi cuzzins, THANK YOU SHEILA !!! Yes, we all need to be looking for a Burwell that married a Spence in the early to mid 1700's. Our Burwell Spence got that name from somewhere. I'm sure his mother didn't just pick it out of " What to Name Your Baby" ! That name LUCY is heavy in the Burwell family of Williamsburg VA. And out of this article did you all see where these Burwell families lived on the NC/VA border and traveled back & forth ? Just like our Burwell ! Folks, there is something there and I think we are getting closer and closer to finding the link ! Good job Sheila !!! Carolyn
