Helen McDonald has the best file on Venable that I know of, Her address is Rt 2 Box 150B Hayden Lake ID 83835. It is old but I think it is good. If you find out she has an e-mail adress, I would appreciate getting it, because I do not know that she is on line.

5/26/98 Hi Rooters, Now that the list is active again, I would like to re-submit this query. We all have mysteries to solve, and I am hoping someone out there can help me solve mine. Josiah VENABLE, his wife, Jane Clack THORNTON, their five children; Joseph, Elizabeth, Mary Jane, Abraham, and Richard, lived in Buckingham Co. He inherited land around 1798 from his brother Abraham, who had purchased it from George STINSON. Josiah was born @1763 in Pr. Edw. Co., Jane was born in 1778 in Pr. Edw. Co. They married there in Dec 1799. He was listed in the 1800 and 1810 Buckingham Co. Tax list, and in the 1810 Census for Buckingham Co., VA. I have no will or death records for him. I have a photo copy of page 374 of the Fluvanna Co., VA Publick Claims book. Book 6, Page 47 -- Guardians Bond -- Jane Venable and Peter P. Thornton [her uncle], November 16, 1818 for Jane VENABLE as guardian of Mary and Eliz. VENABLE, orphans of Josiah VENABLE. Perhaps he died in Fluvanna Co., or his death record was recorded there. Can anyone direct me where to search for this information? Jane shows up in the "EARLIEST LAND BOOK" of Lynchburg in 1818. Her sons, Abraham & Richard are there as well. TIA Mary

Ruby - I don't personally have info on your Mary Sue Newton, second wife of Richard Huddleston. However, I do know their son, John Morton Huddleston, Sr. who still resides in Dillwyn, VA. Morton is married to Ola Trent. I just met with them about three weeks ago. I have their phone number and address. Morton was born in 1911 but is in very good health. I also know of Richard's daughter, Annie Pearl who married Jeff Huddleson. They have some children still around in Dillwyn who could probably help too. Let me know if you are interested. Kathy Huddcooley@aol.com
I have in my files the following: Richard Morton HUDDLESTON b 1848 Buckingham Co VA s/o Robert F. HUDDLESTON & Elizabeth Ann WHEELER married first Mary Margaret SHARP d/o John B. SHARP & Nancy PalmoreGUTHRIE. Married second Mary Sue NEWTON d/o John Edwin NEWTON & Sarah Elizabeth OLIVER. I am interested in learning more about Mary Sue NEWTON. Did she have brothers and sisters? Who were her mother's parents, etc? Ruby Talley Smith
I too enjoy seeing them on the list. So if it is okay with the "boss" I say keep it up. I came across a line I wasn't working on at the time like this.. So I say go for it if it doesn/t offend anyone. Marlene
Hi everyone, I am serching for someone who knows about Nehemiah Evitt that was b. in Buckingham Va. he was the stepfather of Charles Thurman rev. war soldier.b. Feb 6, 1760. Since Charles was raised by a stepfather I cant find out who his father and mother was. Thought someone that is working on the Evitts might know.They moved from Buckingham to Washington Co Va then to Bledsoe Co Tn. HELP,...... Would love to hear from either family. Thanks Bettye Tinker tinker@catt.com
Hi, I agree.

Hey! You didn't say who your 3ggrandfather was. I live in TX now but I am from VA and my grandparents and families were b. in Buckingham, Appomattox and Pr. Edward, so I spent a lot of time up there as a child. Is it the Palmer/Jamison line? Or a french huguenot line?
My (3gr)gf was born in Buckingham Co in 1762. Although his family had moved on to Montgomery Co by 1774 (at the latest) I hang around on the list, waiting for a bit of information that isn't published. It may never come, but at least I'm learning something about their neighbors! Most of what I've seen so far is 1800's, but I'm optimistic that some mid-1700's will creep in sometime! Keep up the "chat" - it's all information. Best wishes, Earl EARL B. AKERS, Senior Akers Ancestry at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Flats/3406/ and USS Agerholm (DD-826) at http://www.geocities.com/pentagon/2210/
Is anybody else interested in the Palmer/Jamison line or Huddleston, Sharp, Fariss or Apperson families from Buckingham Co., Prince Edward Co., Cumberland Co. and surrounding areas. Lets keep this going. I am looking for any information on any of the above people. Thanks. Kathy Brown at Huddcooley@aol.com
Keep up the dialogue folks. It may not be my family in your discussions, but it sure helps me by giving me ideas for my research. JRice +
Hi to the list... Re the "chat" and posting to the list... Since we are a very small list at present, I find this extremely interesting... I suggest it continue for now, as maybe this way we might see a connection that we would miss if message sent directly to the member. Just my thoughts - have a safe and happy Memorial Day Alice in Fluvanna

Thanks, Sandra Sharon
17 Nov. 1786 for the John Jamison/Sarah Palmer marr. (Buckingham Co.,VA). Sorry about the use of the VABUCKIN but I am new to the computer, and new to the "list". I will go back and review the "rules". Thanks! I did not see the Webster families you asked about, although there are a lot of Webster marriages in the index. Sandra
My book lists 2 marriages for a John Jamison: Page 427 - List of marriage bonds for Northampton Co. VA - John Jamison to Adah Clegg Aug 13, 1751. Page 103 - Marriages of Buckingham Co., VA - John Jamison to Sarah Palmer, daughter of Elizabeth Palmer who consents; witness: William Palmer, surety; William Johnson Berryman. There is a Richard Apperson marriage in Charles City Co. in Nov. 1812. Wife not named. Sorry I couldn't find it. Sandra
Sandra, I don't know why all of the person-to-person communication is being posted to the VABUCKIN-L website, but since it is, I just read your note to Bill. The Palmer-Jamison marriage may prove interesting to me. What was the date? You said it was on page 103. While you are looking, could you check for Webster marriages? I am looking for Rezin (Reason) Webster (b 1815) marrying Gene (Jean) Oliver. Also interested in Addison Webster, son of Rezin and also name of purported father. Thanks, Sharon
Sandra, Thanks for looking. It is so hard to find records back that far. I appreciate you trying. Kathy
To Sandra Due: I understand you have an early listing for marriages in Virginia. Could you please check one for me? I am looking for a marriage for John Jamerson (or Jameson, Jamison, Jimmerson, Jimmeson, etc.) and a Matilda Apperson. Probably in Buckingham Co. in mid to late 1700's. Thank you so much.
