As those of you who follow HUFFMAN matters know there are two families of HUFFMAN not known to be related in colonial Culpeper Co., VA. The progenitors are: in 1714 John HUFFMAN (aka John Henry HOFMANN) and 1734 Henry HUFFMAN (aka Hans Henrick HOFMANN) Both HUFFMANs had large families, but there does not seem to be much intermarriage. This may be because John's clan seemed to be Lutheran, while Henry's clan were inclined toward the Baptist faith. Later the 1714 clan were in Madison Co. while the 1734 clan remained in Culpeper Co. (Little Fork area) Several correspondents have sent Culpeper marriage lists from compilations of other researchers. I have integrated the lists and attempted to identify each HUFFMAN (male or female) with their HUFFMAN ancestors. There are a number of the HUFFMANs that I cannot identify (?) in this manner and I am hopeful that you will scan the list for HUFFMAN names with whom you are knowledgeable. Please add any info and advise me. I will collate and publish a new list based on input.
