Hello, Cindy Crigler, a distant cousin, posted the following on Duff Genforum. Cindy is a descendant of Daniel MARR and Susannah DUFF. Susannah was the widow of Berryman Jennings. I am a descendant of Susannah's brother, John DUFF, who married Mary WHEATLEY 7 Jan 1788 in Fauquier Co., VA. They moved to Old Rocky Hill, Barren Co., KY in the late 1790s. Does anyone have any information on these folks? This is from Some Prominent Virginia Families, Vol. 1-4 by Louise Pecquet du Bellet, Lynchburg, VA: J. P. Bell Company, 1907. It is Volume IV, Chapter III on the Washington family [pages 46 - 68], and then the section on the Duff family, Pages 69 - 72: "In 1712 Robert Green and his uncle William Duff came to VA and settled in King George Co. Among his descendants was Judge William Green, President of Court of Appeals, and a warm friend of Judge Daniel Smith. "Each named a son after the other. Daniel Smith Green was a surgeon US Army before the war. Judge Daniel Smith named one son John William Green Smith after Judge William Green. "William Duff had a brother, James Duff, b. 1716.

George Beauregard Strother, attorney, Belter, MO "V. Howard Strother, attorney, Belter, MO "VI. Benjamin F. Strother, insurance agent, Kansas City, MO I also found this information this evening at the Fort Worth Public Library, but their copy of the book was on microfiche and they don't have any method of making "hard" copies of the information. The next section is on the STROTHER family. Is this information correct? Is the John DUFF who went to KY the one who married Mary WHEATLEY??? Thank you, and have a good evening.
