Mike - Sorry it has taken me so long to get back on this; you and I are connected, in a way, but I didn't realize it at first! James H. SHEPHERD's daughter Anne Elizabeth SHEPHERD was (1) the sister of your Richard Wingfield SHEPHERD, and also (2) the second wife of my great-great grandfather, John Powhatan MANN. I am also descended from John Moore WINGFIELD's two brothers, Robert and Matthew, whose children (first cousins) married. Egad! I'm not sure exactly how you and I are related; if I had this in my computer, I'd use the program to figure it out!! Anyway, I do have some notes on those Wingfields and Shepherds; not in the computer! I don't think I have James H. SHEPHERD's parents. Can you contact me directly and let me know what you have & don't have? I'm posting this to the list in case it alerts anyone else who might be interested/connected.
