    3. Grace, Your post below is very revealing and makes the point to why I asked the list yesterday of who had found 2 forenames in records before 1800. Perhaps, I should have stated "in copies of original records" since names, dates, events as gathered from someone else's notes and history(especially those found in internet databases) can resemble a fairy tale from Grimm. Grace wrote: These Whites, Terrells & Adams are mine. I have found no documented evidence that Judith Adams had a middle name of Lewis. Her mother was Mourning (it is thought to be Lewis) and some researchers have posted this second name for Judith, to "prove" it was. This has caused a lot of errors in this research.
