    2. dewey_nolan
    3. I'm sending this out one last time to see if there are any bites before I send the final results on who we've been able to identify in the Amherst Co. HARVEY marriages. After that we'll move on to another county. Debbie Harvey had sent a message that involved several of these marriages and some additional information has been found. Two others have responded who are looking in their files for more. I won't list all the Harvey Amherst marriages this time - only the ones listed in Debbie's message. "Can anyone provide any additional information on Richard Harvey and Mary Wood, daughter of Josiah Wood of England? Any information on Nicholas Harvey (Harvie) or James Harvie (married to a Miss Steptoe) of Botetourt County? The following information was extracted from a typed sheet (origin unknown). \ Richard Harvie married Mary Wood, daughter of Josiah Wood of England. (heir to an estate worth 7 million dollars in 1845.) Richard Harvey was the father of ten children and it names their children 1st James Harvie who married Rachel Thompson (***James Harvey & Rachel Thompson m 21 Nov 1803, Amherst Co) (*** James pos. dec by 1850, Rachel either 60 or 70, found in Nelson Co census - b 1780 or 1790 - there are 2 Rachel Harveys near the same age in the 1850 census.) John who married Isabella Hawkins etc. (*** John R. Harvie m Isabella S. Hawkins 25 Dec 1837, Nelson Co) 2nd Thomas Harvie who marrie Betsy Seay and had ll children and names children. (***Thomas Harvie and Betsey Seay m 19 Oct 1795, Amherst Co) 3rd Betsey married John Newman (***Betsey Harvey m. John Neuman May 26 1794, Amherst Co) 4th Dollie married Peter Saunders (***-Dollie - Dorothy b 1775, she & Peter found in 1850 Nelson Co; Dolly Harvey & Peter Saunders m Dec 11 1802, Amherst Co) 5th John married Sallie Saunders (***John b 1785, he & Sally found in 1850 Nelson Co cen - John Harvey & S. Saunders m 6 June 1816, Nelson Co) 6th Annie married Joseph Seay (Joseph Seay m Nancy Harvie 27 Dec 1796, Amherst Co) 7th Josiah married Mary Going (*** Joseph b 1775, he & Mary found in Nelson Co, 1850 cen, Joseph Harvey & Polly Going m Dec 18, 1802 Amherst Co) 8th Richard (*** There are two marriages for (A) Richard Harvey listed in Nelson Co. - HARVEY, Richard & DAVIS, Ann 31 Mar1818, and HARVEY, Richard & POWERS, Catherine 08 Apr1828) 9th Sallie died single and 10th William married Paulina Bryant. (*** Wm b 1790 - He and Paulina found in 1850 Nelson Co census; William Harvey & P Bryant m 23 Apr1819, Nelson Co) Across the top of the sheet it mentions a Nicholas Harvie location no known. His sisters married men by name of Kidd and Elisha Peters. James Harvie was married to a Miss Steptoe and lived in Botetourt Co. VA. I'm not sure who these two are in relationship to others. They are listed beside Richard Harvie almost like they are his brothers?????????" Does anyone have any other information to add that might identify who these people are? Sandra dewey_nolan@msn.com
