Hi: Yes, I see Ford, Edward 1782 LIST Interested in the other FORDs there whose names are similar to those found with my Henry FORD. ie. Elisha, SPENCER, WOODYARD etc. John Ford m. Rachel Spencer. I belive Rachel is related to the Shelton-Spencer line, their son Josiah married my Henry Ford's daughter. John Ford and Rachel Spencer also had a son, Elisha, as did my Henry Ford. Earlier, Rev War Vet. Elisha Ford had YATES and WOODYARD heirs. Hence my interest in the Fairfax Co. Cemetery.. Thanks Deb --- "P.

DebbieWoodHenry FORD appears to have lived in Charlotte Co VAwhere some of his children married.A Henry FORD appears in court records with: Culverine, Abner, Hezekiah Elisha [name also in my Ford family] and other FORDs. One daughter married in Halifax Co VA. Halifax becamepart of NC, I believe and I've seen Henry FORD namesin later FORD families who moved from MD toMecklenburg NC.I've seen later familes with a Henry FORD and I'veseen an earlier Henry FORD.No record found for Henry and Frances FORDs marriage,which would have taken place abt 1760.His estate records in Pittsylvania Co VA show thatFrances was already deceased when Henry died in 1808. Names found in relation to Henry FOARD's estaterecords are:WOODARD, MARTIN, THOMPSON, SHELTON, SPENCER,BARKSDALE, EDWARD, HICKS, RAGLAND, JONES, TERRY,ELLIS.Very early clergy records have a Henry FORD ofVA,would've been an adult by 1730, who was a grammarschool teacher; HEZEKIAH was listed as his brother(letters to Bishop of London at Library of VA) Henryrequests to become a minister ( Church of England) andto replace the spot left by a Deveraux Jarrett.[nameJarrett in my Ford family].I realize the research on the early FORDS is fairlysketchy, but my Henry must be related somehow to theseknown lines, as his family names reflect as much.If anyone has an inkling as to where Henry may belong,please drop me a line.My Henry and wife Frances(MDNU) would've married circa1760 had children:John m.Frances Haynes circa 1791Elisha born circa 1761 m.Rebecca HaleyEliz. m.
