Posted on: Amelia County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Amelia/10650 Surname: Morris ------------------------- I am seeking information on Isaac Morris who married Mary ?. I have seen his will dated 17 Dec 1749 and will recorded 18 May 1750 from Amelia County. Children listed are daughters, Elizabeth (married a Harris), Tabitha, Rhoda (married John Bedle), and Oney (married Augustine Bedle), Leah, and sons, Moses, Silanus, Zachariah, and Isaac Morris. I'm attempting to determine if his son Isaac, might be my ancestor Isaac Morris from Orange County. Would appreciate any information.

I only know he was born in Virginia some where. He was born about 1775. Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.
Margie: Among other surnames you recently mentioned Booker as one of your interests in Amelia County. My third great grandmother was Elizabeth Booker born in Amelia, I think about 1746. She was the daughter of George Booker and Sarah Cobbs. Elizabeth Booker m. first Burton Hudson and, secondly, John Morris. I can bring these people forward with some degree of accuracy but not back and am wondering if these enter your line anywhere. If so, maybe we could be of help to each other. Elizabeth's second husband John Morris is my brick wall also. Grace
