Not my line, Sally, and certainly not to generate uhmmm Spelling Lessons, but don't overlook "AVERITT" in your search as well as "AVIRETT". I have noted a Rev. James B. Avirett as having married Mary L., the daughter of Atty. Philip WILLIAMS of Shenandoah County, Va., in the 1800s. [WILLIAMS are a branch of my CLAYTON line out of Culpeper.] >Now, I'm asking for a favor from all of you Culpeper researchers. My ancestor search is for William Benjamin Franklin Everett b. 11 Dec. 1864 in Culpeper Co., VA d. 18 Oct. 1932 Washington, DC. His father was John Everett b. VA and his mother was Rebecca Freeman b. MD. Help with John Everett PLEASE!!! > >Sally from NY State
