Two separate parts of my family are from Buckingham County. MYSTERY #1: In the Curdsville area, lived John Wayles Eppes, who had a son Willie Jones Eppes. Dr. Eppes (1811-1879) was first married to Anne Grey Cox of N.C. Their 2 children who lived were Eleanor "Nellie" Blount and Anne "Nannie". Nellie married John Page and Nannie married Dr. William E. Osborne. Dr. Osborne (my gr-gr-grandfather) is my BIGGEST mystery. He may have been born in Buckingham abt. 1820, but possibly Appomattox CO. He practiced medicine in Curdsville for many years and their 8 children were all born there. He died 1890-1894, while living in Scottsville over in Albemarle CO. I know nothing about Dr. Osborne's birth family. MYSTERY #2: In the New Canton area, my gr-grandfather's sister, Ida Lee Kyle married Thomas Davis about 1878. They had 3 children: Merrill Kyle, Hubert, and Virginia. She later married Thornton B. Weller. Merrill married Katie Flanagan, and Virginia married an Anderson. I am just now piecing together this part of the family. Any connections to any of my family are appreciated. Happy holidays to all, Kyleen Gavin (in Sunny Florida)

Kyleen Mystery 1. Try Nodaway Co., for the Osborne family, my Henry P. Davis married c. 1810 Sara Osbourne of Nottoway County, permission was given by father or brother Branch Osbourne/Osburn. They lived in Amherst and Prince Edward Counties. THere is a book about the old homes of Nottaway that mentions the homeplace. Other than that I have found very little published record for the county and have not been there to th courthouse Mystery 2. The above Henry P. Davis(1788-187) son of Samuel Henry Davis and Elizabeth Spencer, had a brother Thomas S. Davis (178? - 1827) m 1st (1808) Mary Price, m. 2nd 1810 Frances"Frankie" Gillespie, he had a son Thomas J. Davis. The Davis family had property lived? in Prince Edward, Appomattox, Amherst and Lynchburg at various times. Who is Ida's brother? Is their father Robert Rowland Kyle of Amherst Co?
