I did skip a generation. You are right. It was Phillip Sherwood's daughter Sarah who married David Rosser, and THEIR daughter who married four times. Thanks for the correction.

I then show they had a daughter Sarah who married the men you mentioned.

I think Mike Marshall believes this Elizabeth was actually a daughter of Thomas Marshall & Martha Sherwood who married Bridges Rozier/Rosser. She had a second marriage to Francis Redman. If this is correct, do you know the relationship of Bridges Rozier/Rosser to David Rosser? >> >> Thanks. >> >> David >> >> >> >> From: Craig Kilby <persisto1@gmail.com> >> To: Northern Neck Northern Neck List <VA-NORTHERN-NECK@rootsweb.com> >> Sent: Sunday, November 25, 2012 11:52 PM >> Subject: [VA-NORTHERN-NECK] SHERWOOD/MARSHALL/JAMES/ROSSER >> >> Hi all, >> >> The recent discussion on Thomas Marshall and his wife Martha Sherwood motivated me to add a LITTLE more meat to what I had previously for Phillip Sherwood. I had heretofore only entered his daughter, much married Sarah who married (1) Henry Wood (2) WIlliam Willis (3) Rush Hudson and (4) Edward Turberville. >> >> I have now added his three other daughters who were: >> >> a.

Her 2nd husband was Alexander Thompson. >> c. Ann Sherwood who married James Dabney of King William County >> >> With respect to Martha, and all due apologies who entered her as Mary Jane Pendleton Marshall, I deleted the person named Mary Jane Pendleton Marshall and thankfully she was not shown with any parents or other data, and replaced her with Martha Sherwood, daughter of Phillip Sherwood. (I have no idea who or how anyone came up with the name of someone born about 1660 with two middle names. I seriously doubt there is ANY record of her with that name. Certainly in 1685 when she and her husband were involved in chancery suit with her siblings to settle the estate of Phillip Sherwood. If there is evidence to support such a name, I will glad change it back.) >> >> I have more to add on Phillip Sherwood and his daughter Sarah, who are my direct ancestors, but I will not be adding anything to the Marshall or James lines as there are undoubtedly more well-versed people than I here on this list who can do that. Ann (Sherwood) Dabney is the one I know the least about, and don't plan to do anything with her descendants either. >> >> Cheers! >> Craig Kilby >> >> >> >
