I can trace my husband's Thomas family to John and Polley (Mary) Thomas of Bedford Co., VA. Their son - who family legend says was adopted (unproven) - Thomas Tate Thomas was born there in 1851-2 (different records and gravestone). He married Mary Elizabeth Divers in Franklin Co. at her parents' home and his descendants lived there in Rocky Mount and surrounds until approx. 1913 and moved to OH. No records, to date, have uncovered anything about John and Polley who are listed as his parents on his marriage certificate.
