Hello the List! This is my first posting to this list. My ancestor, WIlliam HAYNES (1740-1827) lived in Amherst county for many years. He married Hannah ELLIS in Lexington Parish, Amherst Co. VA in 1764. They had ten children. When she died, he married Sally TULY in Amherst in 1793. Shortly after that, he moved his family to KY. His father William (1710-1781) and siblings lived in nearby Bedford County. What I know about him is on my website. All researchers show him born in Amherst County, but that isn't correct; it wasn't formed until after his birth. I'd love to find out more about where he was born, and other details of his life. any help would be appreciated.

John, Do you know who Hannah ELLIS parents were. I have Hannah Ellis d/o Charles Ellis and Susannah Harding. I only have a possible range for her dob Bet. 1740 - 1759, but 1764 could be a possiblity. Let me know if you want the information. Also, anyone on the list who might want the information let me know. The majority of my Ellis information is from Joseph L. Miller, The Descendants of Captain Thomas Carter, (Virginia Historical Society, Virginia 1912, page 229, Andy Lawless JHaynesNC@aol.com wrote: > Hello the List! > > This is my first posting to this list.
