This is a shot in the dark. When the subject of the Anderson surname came up this week I decided to present a road block that I have encountered. My great grandfather is Robert Anderson Lacy b. 1836 in Goochland m. April 19, 18?? Ann M. PROFITT. Died March 18, 1905 in Goochland. Robert Anderson LACY was the son of Edmund Terrill LACY and Eliza BURRUSS. My problem is that I can find nothing on Eliza BURRUSS or Ann M. PROFITT either. My shot in the dark is that it was common for one of the sons to carry the maiden name of one of the grandmothers. I am fairly confident that the Anderson did not originate from the TERRILL line. As I know nothing about the BURRUSS line I am hoping that it rings a bell with one of the Anderson Lines. Many thanks, in advance, for any effort given this problem. Regards, Mike Lacy
