To "timas" - My name is Peter Parrish ([email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ). I am attempting to find the Staples widow named Malinda (maiden name unknown) who re-married after 1850. I would very much appreciate any information from your cousin's work - or your own - about her Staples husband. She outlived her second husband Willis Redmond Parrish and as far as I know died in Louisa county circa 1880. I would be happy at anything you might tell me as I have wondered about her for about 20 years! Why is it that the mysteries of more recent times are such a challenge? Thank you very much for whatever you might tell me, a distracting question it may be. Peter Parrish, GGGrandson of WRP
