Marlene, I have Wests back in my line. They married into the Belks and Bilbreys in Overton Co. TN and go back into Virginia. I have several John West but none fit the wife and dates you sent. I do have Isaac West b. 1745 who married Susannah Anderson in Virginia around 1771, but the dates on their ch. are estimates so those dates could vary a little. This Isaac was son of William West b. 1724 and died 1808 in Chester Co. PA. Wm. West was son of John West 1690-1776 in England. I found lots of this West info. on Internet. Rich McCormick has lots on the Wests, that were my line. His dates and mine vary a little but it definitely is the same family. I can't find his address right now but you can probably do a WEST search and find his page. Then there is Guy Zimmerman's page: http://www.parsonstech.com/genealogy//TREES/GZIM/ZIMM.HTM He has Belks, West, Hughes and Chamberlain in VA and these are my line too. Hope you tie in with us. The double //up above before TREES is correct. I thought it was an error but it's not. Good luck. Please let me know if we connect. Will help if we do have same line.
